Go windsurfing in the Arenal lake, walk along the treetops in Monteverde, take a dip in the turquoise colored Celeste River, and maybe catch an alligator gar fish in Cano Negro’s swampy waters… In other words, there is something for everyone and tour options abound.

Guanacaste

Guanacaste invites you to enjoy extensive flora and fauna, through different activities and unforgettable locations.
We recommend visiting the national parks, like Santa Rosa, one of the oldest and site of a historic battle;
Palo Verde, which offers boat rides; or Rincon de la Vieja, home to a volcano of the same name that produces natural mud pools and hot springs.
Enjoy rivers, waterfalls, mountains, beaches and reefs, as the area can be relished in different ways, like driving an ATV, horseback riding, ziplining, diving, and sport fishing. And don’t forget to witness the sea turtles nesting!

Caribe

The warmth of the Caribbean welcomes you with its favor and joy, woven in an afro Caribbean culture. The ambiance will incite your senses: vibrant music, taste of bananas grown in the area, the tranquility from crystal waters, excitement from seeing a marine turtle taking its first steps in the world, listening to a howling monkey from the nearby treetops, and the smell of the traditional Rice and Beans made with coconut. The fun doesn’t end with surprises only nature can provide. The Caribbean offers an endless number of recreational activities, like snorkeling, surfing, horseback riding, tours of the cacao fields, and enjoying an exuberant vegetation and great array of animals that are only found in this region.
