Tubing in Pavones – Pavones, Costa Rica

October 13th, 2012 – Pavones, Costa Rica

Pavones – No surf…no problem!  There are many activities and things to do in Pavones besides surfing such as tubing in Pavones.  This is a fun experience if you have to try if conditions are right.  The hike is about two hours to get to the river (Rio Claro) and the actual time in the river is about three hours.  The hike up to the river is a great way to see some amazing views of the jungle, ocean and wildlife.  On this trip we were able to spot lots of birds, howler monkeys and squirrel monkeys.  

The actual tubing part is really fun making you feel like a little kid at a water park as you can’t wipe the smile off of your face.  We timed everything perfect because the river wasn’t too shallow or too fast, one thing you just have to make check to ensure a fun but safe trip.  The three hour experience is so surreal being in the middle of the jungle cruising down the Rio Claro as you observe all the sites and sounds of being in an amazing setting.  There are some parts where you have to get up and walk in or around the river to avoid a few fallen trees or shallow parts.  But overall this is an amazing fun experience that you will never forget.  The best part is that the river will spit you out right at the surf break of Pavones!  Make sure you allow yourself a good 5-6 hours for this trip.  Ask locals if they think the river’s flow is not to slow or fast to ensure safety.  If you are looking for things to do in Pavones and want some fun adventure, tubing in Pavones is an amazing experience you won’t forget!

September 30th, 2012 – Pavones, Costa Rica

Pavones – We had a great turn out yesterday for the first World Surf Pavones contest.  A lot of people from the community came out to join the competition and support the event throughout the entire day. There were about 18 participants in the surf competition and they all did a great job.  Surf conditions were fair as it was knee to chest high surf.  It might have been a little tough on the participants due to the inconsistency of the sets but conditions got a little better as the day went on. The weather was great earlier with partly cloudy skies but eventually we got some rain towards the quarter and semi finals of the competition.  

Congratulations to JeanCarlos Mendoza Vargas for winning the overall event.  The top four finalists received gifts for their efforts.  Below are the top four competitors of the event.

  1. JeanCarlos Mendoza Vargas
  2. Henry Martinez
  3. Jimmy Jimenz
  4. Leilani McGonagle

Congratulations to Leilani McGonagle for winning the woman’s competition.  Below are the top four competitors for the event.

Most importantly thanks to all the surfers who participated the competition.  It was a fun and friendly event.

I would like to challenge all of us to make this a bigger event next year.  It was great to see the community support such a great event.  I would like to encourage all the local businesses and community to sponser a local kid to enter the competition so they can look forward to having a shot at becoming next champion of the World Surf Pavones competition.  Let’s step it up next year and make this a great annual event for the town of Pavones!

Rambutan - Exotic Fruit in Pavones, Costa Rica

Pavones – Rambutan or more commonly called Mamon Chino here in Costa Rica is one of the coolest looking fruits around.  Harvested this time of year (just like the Mangosteen) you can see endless bags being sold by street vendors throughout the roads and towns of Costa Rica.  

The exterior shell of the Rambutan is a soft, rubber-like texture with stiff like bristles.  It’s oval shaped size ranges from 1-2 inches long.  In order to access the fruit inside simply twist the rind and there you will see a juicy white translucent grape-like fruit around an inner seed.  The taste is out of this world.  Some people describe the taste as sweet and slightly mild in flavor, similar to a lychee or longan.   It’s super juicy and addicting to eat!  


You can get a one pound bag for around $2 here.  

Rambutan - Exotic Fruit in Pavones, Costa Rica

Below are some health benefits of the Rambutan that we have taken from this website http://www.101healthyrecipes.com/health-benefits-of-fruit/rambutan-fruit-facts-health-benefits-101.php

  • Rambutan fruit is rich in sugar, mostly fructose and sucrose, but less calories, only around 60 in a fruit. Rambutan fruit is abundant with vitamin C and has potassium, iron, beta carotene or vitamin A, and a little calcium, magnesium zinc, sodium, niacin, fiber and protein.
  • The fruit has been employed in traditional medicine in Malaysia and Indonesia for hundreds of years as a treatment for diabetes, hypertension and various ailments. Besides the antioxidants obtained in its beta carotene and vitamin C, research workers at the Chiang Mai University in Thailand found that the rambutan pulp, seeds and skin have strong, plant based, antioxidants calledflavonoids. Certain kinds of flavonoids are believed to reduce cholesterol and possess anti-cancerous, anti-inflammatory attributes.
  • One of many organic compounds contained in the skin is Gallic acid. This compound behaves like a free radical scavenger as it helps protect against oxidative damage in our body and is regarded as a strong aid in the battle against cancer. Due to its extensive antioxidant activity, compared to other exotic fruits like pomegranate, rambutan skin extract may be promoted as a drug or health supplement product.
  • The rambutan is abundant with vitamin C. 10-12 rambutans provide 75-90 mg ascorbic acid, more than double the amount recommended to take daily. An essential antioxidant, vitamin C prevents body cells from being damaged by free radicals and helps the absorption of iron.
  • The fruit also has small quantities of copper, necessary for the creation of white and red blood cells, and also manganese, which our body needs to produce and activate some enzymes.
  • A single serving of rambutan functions as an excellent iron source. The iron in what you eat promotes the correct amount of oxygen inside you, which help stop the dizziness and fatigue due to anemia, an illness caused by low iron.
  • Additionally, you will obtain 4.3% of the daily recommended intake ofphosphorus when you have a serving of rambutan. Phosphorus helps remove waste in your kidneys and is essential for the development, repair and maintenance of tissues and body cells. Rambutan also has a small amount ofcalcium; both phosphorus and calcium work together to fortify your teeth and bones.

Pavones – The swell of the season showed up on Friday afternoon as sized picked up in a hurry. Today we had great conditions with waves well overhead with occasional sets double overhead. The waves were connecting from the point all they way through the inside bay.  We had a good size crowd today and the town was packed with tourists and Costa Rican locals who reside from all parts of the country.   Waves were pretty consistent all day with good size.  There were a lot of snapped boards, barrels, long rides.  Fun times.  Jolly Roger has a live band playing  xylophones tonight and La Manta has video from today’s action playing on the big screen.  They also have a live band playing tonight.  If you’re in town check them out!!

If you get to travel this way to Pavones this time of year you might be able to get your hands on a rare exotic fruit found here in Southern Costa Rica called Mangosteen (Scientific name is Garcina mangostana). Mangosteen has been regarded as one of the most delicious and best flavored fruits in the world.  This fruit is believed to have originated in the Sunda Islands and the Moluccas (Indonesia).  Mangosteen has also been called “The Queen of Fruit” and the “food of the Gods” in some parts of the world.

Exotic Fruit in Costa Rica - Mangosteen

It takes approximately 7-10 years for the mangosteen to bear fruit.  Once the tree matures to its full growth (20 – 80 feet in height) it can yield on average up to 500 mangosteen fruits per harvest. The fruit itself has a purple rind with a juicy soft white flesh in 4-8 segments (edible part).  The fruit in its entirety ranges from 2 to 3 inches in diameter, about the size of a tangerine.  When the fruit is ripe, the rind becomes soft and can be opened  by twisting the rind with your hands.  Be careful because the rind can stain your hands purple.  

In addition to its rich taste, mangosteen is also regarded as a super fruit and has been uses as medicinal purposes for hundreds of years.  The fruit, fruit juice, rind, twig, and bark are used as medicine.  Mangosteen is used for anti-inflammatory, anti-oxidents, intestinal infections, urinary tract infections, diarrhea, cancer, osteoarthritis, menstual disorders and contains more than 40 xanthones.  Check out this page for more health benefits of mangosteen.

In 2007 the United States lifted the ban on mangosteen to allow imports of this tropical fruit.  But don’t be surprised to find this at just any grocery store and expect to pay up to $45/pound!  

You can find these fruits at the Costa Rican/Panamanian border at certain fruit stands.  If you’re lucky and meet the right people in town, they could get you some of this exotic fruit in Pavones.  If you have an opportunity to get your hands on mangosteen, you must do so!  It might be the best fruit you’ve ever tasted!
