Full description
Scenic journey along the Pacific coast to Manuel Antonio National Park to explore tropical rainforest trails and relax on pristine coral beaches.
The journey travels along the scenic South Coastal highway, offering views of the Pacific coastline while passing through African palm plantations and charming local villages. Upon reaching the Port of Quepos, the route leads toward one of the most celebrated nature reserves in the region, where vehicle access ends and visitors take a short hike across a small creek to enter the protected area.
Once inside Manuel Antonio National Park, walking trails wind through lush tropical rainforest, providing opportunities to spot diverse wildlife such as white-faced capuchin monkeys, iguanas, native birds, and three-toed sloths. Guests can also unwind on white-sand beaches flanked by coral reefs and dense vegetation.
