It takes a little more effort to travel here to see the nesting turtles of Tortuguero, raft Río Pacuare or dive the reefs of Manzanillo. It’s worth tasting its unique flavors: the rondón, lilt of patois, and uncrowded, palm-lined beaches.
- slide silently through jungle canals in search of wildlife or volunteer to protect endangered sea turtles in Tortuguero
- ride the Río Pacuare, the country’s most extreme river
- surf, sample the culinary scene, laze on the beach and party in Puerto Viejo de Talamanca
