Digging in Costa Rica

My girl's family lives in Costa Rica so we're planning a visit in a few months. Looking forward to the beaches but I'd rather catch a record store tan for the most part. I'm hoping the country's geographic location will make it a great crossroads for all kinds of soca / dancehall / brazilian / general latin fire.Any one have knowledge to drop?

It will be Latin. Not soca. Not Brazilian because they don't speak Portuguese. Maybe new reggaeton records.
Good luck mang.
This is where you are going wrong in life.
If it's anything like Mexico, the areas where you want to chill are not close to the one area where you can maybe find wax if you are lucky.
what area were you in?
the rainforest was the shit though...forget whta it was called...the little town that you gotta drive on the rocky ass road too and then you get to a little hippie town. gotttam! necesary. well run park. i saw weird animals there i'll never see again sober.
tamarindo is a great beach area.
eat granadillas in abundance and pour linzano on every piece of fish you see.
that is a country thats got its priorities straight
fyi: if youre into reggae or Jamaican culture in general go to the Caribbean side...the busride out there was like a scene out of Romancing the Stone with huge cliffs and lush tropical vegetation...cant speak on the Pacific side...
the hot springs are nice dude, but in a theme park way.
my number one tip for finding records in central america is take an ad out in the paper.
that was how i got all my good leads, but don't do it unless your serious. many people will call you.
