costa rica earthquakes
An earthquake hit Costa Rica and Panama in 1991 at about 7.2 was it on the carribean or pacific side?
I’m curious to find out what kind of damage occured due to the earthquake and as stated in my question what side it hit on?
The earthquake was on April 22nd 1991. In Costa Rica the earthquake hit Limón. Limón is located on Costa Rica’s Caribbean Coast. The earthquake also hit Panama in the North Caribbean Coast. Reports say 95 people died in both countries (equally).
The 7.2 earquake was also felt in in Nicaragua, Honduras, San Andres Island and in eastern El Salvador (San Salvador).
