The Southern Zone

Buying real estate is one of the biggest decisions in most people’s lives. And even more so when you are buying in a foreign country.

The Real Pacific wants to help you make a well informed decision.

Much like a personal relationship, you need to get to know the place and the property. You need to understand its culture, its quirks and its charms.

And we want to get to know you, what you need and want, and how you plan to enjoy a tropical lifestyle.

There is no better way to accomplish both of those things than to take you on a tour of this special place we call home – The Southern Zone – Ojochal, Chontales, and Costa Ballena.

With its dramatic coastline, numerous beaches and vibrant communities, the Southern Zone has become the most desirable location in Costa Rica to live, work, and play.

Stretching from the surfing village of Dominical, to Corcovado National Park on the Osa Peninsula, and south to the border with Panama, the area has some of the most spectacular untouched natural beauty linked to the necessary infrastructure for modern living.

For many, Costa Ballena best represents the Southern Zone – amazing beaches, a world-renown National Marine Park, easy access to nature, and all the amenities you need. At the south end of Costa Ballena is its crown jewel, the village of Ojochal. Viewed by many as the gastronomy capital of Costa Rica, Ojochal follows two rivers from the ocean to the base of the mountains. Just south of Ojochal is the mountain community of Chontales. This area is home to the premier real estate developments in Costa Rica.
