Turtles & Beaches
8 days - from $1530
An overwhelming array of scenery and wildlife in this nature-lover’s paradise
Central America’s magical jewel of natural marvels, Costa Rica has an embarrassment of wildlife riches, and opportunities abound to explore its pristine landscapes. Picking your highlight is the toughest part of any adventure here: discovering Tortuguero National Park’s turtle breeding grounds, perhaps, or taking to the waters for serene exploration of the jungle’s countless rivulets and lagoons; relaxing on the fine powder sands of Bri Bri Indigenous Reserve’s beaches, or maybe searching for wildlife like capuchin monkeys and manatee. All the while, the twin companions of a towering volcanic backdrop and friendly locals help make any visit here memorable.
Highlights
- The wildlife of Torteguero National Park's canals
