Caribbean town of Cahuita, Costa Rica
This plaque is located in the small village of Cahuita, Costa Rica. It reads: "Cahuita was created in the 19th century with the arrival to our coasts of English-speaking turtle hunters who sailed from Bocas del Toro and Nicaragua and settled provisional camps during seven months, from March to September. In addition to turtle hunting, they also plant some products for their survival. The first of them were the Smith family who settled their fishing camp in 1828 where today is known as 'Punta Cahuita'. This is how the village was created".
