Traditional Knowledge and the Rhythm of Nature

In the coastal areas of Paquera, daily life still follows the rhythm of nature. Many locals read the moon and the tides to know when to fish or plant. The wind’s direction, the song of certain birds, and the color of the sea all serve as quiet guides for those who listen.

This traditional knowledge, passed down from parents and grandparents, is part of the region’s living heritage. People use local plants for natural remedies, respect seasonal cycles, and understand how everything in nature is connected.

Even as modern life grows around them, these traditions remain strong — a reminder that true sustainability comes from harmony with the environment.

For visitors, this balance that still exist between people and nature is one of the most inspiring parts of Paquera’s culture: a simple, wise way of living with the world, not against it.
