Picture exuberant rainforest fringed by Pacific beaches and a maze of mangroves, scattered islands and a vast lagoon – all brimming with life.
Costa Rica’s smallest national park punches well above its weight in terms of wildlife spotting and is one of the best places in the country to find sloths. This 3-hour walking tour is also likely to reveal monkeys, agoutis, raccoons, white-tailed deer, tree frogs, toucans and more.
You’ll be guided through 1.5kms of easy trails in search of some of the park’s wild inhabitants, spotting a colourful array of plants and flowers along the way and learning about the park’s history, flora and fauna.
You’ll emerge from the rainforest onto a beautiful beach for time to relax or swim, or perhaps continue your hike up to the spectacular Punta Catedral lookout point.
All the gear, all the ideas. During the Green Season, the heady combo of humidity and rain demand a hard suitcase, dry bag, waterproofs and hiking shoes.
