Playa Pavones, Costa Rica
|
|
|
Home to one of the longest lefts in the world (the wave goes on and on
and on), Pavones Beach is an essential stop on any true surfer's
itinerary.
When a swell is about to hit, the town itself swells with tourists. On
these
occasions, it is nearly impossible to find an inexpensive place to
stay.
Nearly everyone here is blond, bronzed, and in board shorts.
Surfers come to Pavones for months at a time (especially during the wet
season,
when the swells are best), and the absence of anything but a spattering
of
cabinas here is a testament to their passion.
However, with powerful waves smashing into the black jagged shore,
Playa
Pavones is an aesthetic treat for the occasional non-surfer who wanders
into
town.

Beach Lot Leases at Pavones
|
|
|
A note about ownership of beachfront land: Ocean front beach lots
cannot be purchased
or fully titled in Costa Rica. They may be leased from local
municipalities.
I want to clarify the point that beach lots are not for sale.
A potential buyer needs to understand the processes involved in zoning
planification,
maritime zone concessions, municipal beach leases and permits of use.
Each piece of land or ocean front lot
that is available in Pavones Costa Rica has its own unique history and
set of criteria, papers
in process, special lease terms or concessions. The stage of these
processes is an important
factor in the price being asked for the lot.
It is possible to purchase an established Corporation, which has
already taken the beach lot property through the full leasing process.

More sand and fewer surfers can be found on the beach of Punta Banco,
5km
southeast of Playa Pavones Beach. Follow the dirt road along the
coast until the beach becomes
less rocky (1km), and then continue your trek on the dark sands.

This process would be completed when a concession is granted,
(the full leasing process). We are still in the dark ages here with
municipality problems, so the majority of properties on the beaches
will be best If they have a Permiso del Uso, or Use Permit. The
shareholders of the Corporation become the tenants of the beach leases.
The ideal situation would be to purchase an established Costa Rica
Corporation which
has an approved record on file with the local municipality, and the
Occupant
(being the corporation) has been issued a permiso del uso.
Any further information needed to clarify why a beach concession is
not ready to be granted, or perhaps one is clearly about due, can be
explained
by myself depending on the property in question.
