About Savegre

Savegre is a coastal district of Quepos canton in Puntarenas province, on the Central Pacific between Manuel Antonio and Dominical. It takes its name from the Savegre River, which runs down from the Talamanca mountains and reaches the ocean here through a wide, green plain.

The district had a population of 5381 in 2022. Villages such as Matapalo, Portalón and Dos Bocas are spread along the Costanera highway and the river valleys, with oil palm on the flat land near the coast, long beaches with few people, and forested hills rising behind.

The hills above Portalón and the upper river valleys are known for waterfalls, clear swimming holes and rich wildlife, with protected forest further up towards the mountains. Quepos, with its marina, hospital and shops, and Manuel Antonio National Park are a short drive north; Dominical and the Costa Ballena are a short drive south.

Savegre suits people who want quiet, green land between two well-known parts of the coast, with services close by.
