Pura Vida Ride is a coffee shop on the beach at Playa Danta in Las Catalinas, Costa Rica. We welcome locals that live in town and travelers from many different places to come and sit in our rocking chairs and enjoy the beauty of the ocean, great coffee, muffins, empanadas, and some fun conversation!

What truly sets us apart isn't just its exceptional coffee, fresh muffins; hot empanadas, or cold gelato and shaved ice, it's the vibrant pulse of community in the chairs outside. In the morning, some guests arrive after invigorating morning workouts, some come to just chat with others and get the morning updates. With the backdrop of the ocean, a genuine sense of connection permeates these interactions. In a world that often feels fragmented and disconnected, Pura Vida Ride serves as a reminder of the power of human connection.

So, if ever you find yourself wandering along the shores of Costa Rica, make sure to pay a visit to Pura Vida Ride for a morning coffee. Whether you're in need of a caffeine fix, a moment of respite, or simply a warm smile and a friendly conversation, you'll find all that and more. After all, life is sweeter when shared with others, especially in a place as special as this.
