I did this trip in September 2025 and this is by far the best one I have done so far. This trip shows you how diverse the country is with its different ecosystems and wildlife. From the Caribbean coast over to the Pacific. Everywhere you look there is an abundance of wildlife from the colourful birds and larger mammals/primates right down to the tiny frogs and leaf cutter ants.
Manuel Antonio
Adventure Holidays to Manuel Antonio National Park
Set on the Pacific coast, Manuel Antonio may be the smallest national park in Costa Rica, but it boasts some of the country’s best and most beautiful beaches.
The dry coastal rainforest comes right down to the Pacific Ocean and provides a home for white-faced and squirrel monkeys, iguanas, sloths and toucans, most of which can be readily spotted while walking along the sandy paths.
