Meeting point of lush rainforests and the white sands of the Pacific coast, Manuel Antonio National Park are filled with awe-inspiring wildlife such as monkeys playing in the treetops, lazy sloths and iguanas. All this you can experience closely by walking the rainforest trails or snorkeling in the pristine beaches.
Abode to the beautiful quetzal bird and more than 450 species of orchid, the Monterverde cloud forest is wrapped in a damp mist keeping the foliage greener all year around. Here you can go for hiking trails, enjoy canopying, visit the nearby coffee and sugar plantations along with the small communities who make the most popular cheese of the country.
An active conical volcano spilling out molten hot lava is a perfect thing to see in Costa Rica. But recently the volcanic activities have calmed down; still it smokes from time to time. Therefore, hiking the Arenal crater is banned as of now. But you can visit the Arenal National Park which is an adventurous playground. Here, you can go for canopying on the zip wires, visit the hot springs and relax your body, take the hanging bridges in order to get as close as possible to the crater.
Accessible by boat or light aircraft only, Tortuguero National Park is tucked up in the north-eastern part of the country. The major attraction of this National Park is the endangered green turtles along with the hawksbill, loggerhead and leatherback varieties that come here to lay their eggs. It is truly magical sight to watch them dragging their massive forms up the beach by night. Also, witnessing the little hatchlings making their way into the water for the first time is an extremely charming view.
