Immerse yourself in our vibrant local community and savor the true essence of Costa Rica.
What Will You Experience?
Each week, local producers, artisans, and chefs from the area gather to offer the best from their farms in the heart of Uvita. It is the perfect place to discover and taste freshly harvested exotic fruits (such as rambutan or soursop), purchase artisanal chocolate, high-altitude coffee, and delicious homemade empanadas.
More than just a market, it is a cultural meeting point. You will connect with local people, listen to live music, and directly support the economy of our beautiful town. A festival of colors, aromas, and flavors that will make you feel like a true Tico!
