La Union Rio Perla (“La Perla”) La Union Rio Perla “(La Perla”) is a small rural village with about 10 resident households in the Caribbean Highlands of Costa Rica. Twenty years ago, there were and about 30-35 households and several active coffee and dairy farms, and a large macadamia farm. But, over the years, the farms were converted to pasture and small farms for beef cattle. Presently, there are only 2 organized commercial activities in La Perla, La Cholita which is a large dairy farm, and Finca Rio Perla which is a multi-activity farm including dairy, poultry, tilapia fish, coffee, cocoa and recreational activities (hiking and horseback riding) and lodging (www.fincarioperla.com). There is a small primary school in the center of the village with a large futbol field, and a short walk to the Perla River and “Playa La Perla”; a great place to go swimming and for picnics.
