Need some help,
We have a rental car in Costa Rica and intend to drive down the Carribean coast to Panama. Its our intent to leave the car for three days while we go on to Bocas del Toro. What secured/guarded parking lot, closest to the border at Sixaola, can we leave our rental in untill we return? If there isn't one does anyone have any ideas what we can do?

There are some guarded parking lots at the border, just look left and right of the road.

You will be approached by touts to secure your car or get you transportation onwards from the bridge. I would only park it near the bridge on the left as Jose suggest, in plain view....there are 2 sodas/bars that are family owned....check in ask then maybe if Immigration is not in a kind mood or rules have changed...

I payed the CR Immigration guys, and they let me put in in a fenced in area...for 2 nights was $8, 3 years ago...
