Puerto Limón is located not far from where the Spanish explorer Christopher Columbus landed in 1503. The city was founded in 1854 by Philipp J. J. Valentini. In the late 19th century, Limon was connected with Jan Jose by railroad. The ability to transport goods and the banana industry along the tracks help with the city’s growth.
Unlike most cities in Costa Rica, Puerto Limón has a strong Afro Caribbean culture. The majority of the population are of Caribbean descent. Spanish, English, and Caribbean Patois are the common languages in town. Puerto Limón is known for its cashew, bars and restaurants, nightlife, and the famous Columbus Day carnival.
