Manuel Antonio National Park is the most famous national park in Costa Rica. It not only has dense rainforests, but also lives many rare wildlife, such as Monkeys, Smiling Monkeys, Raccoons, etc. You may see it here. Hiking is the best way to travel here and you will see many precious scenes that are definitely worth a visit.

The hike was slightly tricky in places if you are not accustomed to altitude but I completed it with lots of patience. I saw precisely one bird which was not a Quetzal so if my fellow tour guest wasn't a botanist, this would have been a wasted trip. Intrepid bring you here at 8am. I hear that birds come out at 5am so perhaps they were asleep when we visited?

Visitors to Arena Volcano Park are welcome, and the bubble volcanic hot springs are simply too enjoyable. The country is really a country that is brave! There are more than 270 volcanoes here, the most famous is Arena volcano located near the famous tourist resort of La Fortuna in northern Costa Rica. It had a devastating eruption in 1968, and it entered a long dormant state after 2010. Now it is a national park for tourists to visit. On the way to the volcano, you can see many small ants moving in groups and against the mini leaves to the observation deck. The view is very good. There is always a cloud and mist around the crater, surrounded by cloud and fog forests. There is a dining shop next to it, you can have a drink and look at the volcano. The scenery here is too suitable for wide angles, enjoy pure life pura vida! ❤️ For more local fun in Costa Rica, please consult me!
