Information
Though police presence has ramped up noticeably, pickpockets can be a problem, particu-
larly in the market and along the sea wall. In addition, people do get mugged here, so stick
to well-lit main streets at night, avoiding the sea wall and Parque Vargas. If driving, park
in a guarded lot and remove everything from the car.
If you're traveling onward to Parismina or Tortuguero, Limón will be your last oppor-
tunity to get cash (and phonecards, for the Parismina-bound).
There's an internet cafe in the Autotransportes Mepe Terminal.
