Optional tours Manuel Antonio

Manuel Antonio National Park

Manuel Antonio National Park is the most visited national park in Costa Rica. This protected area is very popular due to its great variety of flora and fauna. The park consists of several beaches, mangroves, dry and wet coastal forests. An experienced guide will accompany you in this picturesque oasis of life where you will be amazed by its natural wonders. Amongst the most common fauna we can find: monkeys, birds, iguanas, crabs, sloths and some other mammals. This coastal reserve contains the most important population of the Squirrel Monkey or “Tití” Monkey in Costa Rica, the smallest and most threatened species of monkeys in the country. This tropical paradise is the perfect place to enjoy walking on beautiful white sand beaches or having the opportunity to jump in the clear ocean water (specially on a sunny warm day), all of this in an idyllic environment surrounded by tropical rain forest. After touring the national park, we can’t leave Manuel Antonio without having a delicious lunch with a great ocean view.

ATV tours

The tour begins with a drive towards the big green mountains, away from the Pacific Ocean. We will take a dirt road going up to the top! We will be able to clearly see the entire coastline and the Nicoya Peninsula. The rainforest is so plentiful and filled with vivid green colors. Ready for more? We’ll get back on our quads and start the descent back down the mountain. This is a bit more technical than the climb up, the mountain side really gives you the perspective of how high we really are above sea level.
