Manuel Antonio: Forest paths down to the Pacific

The park trails direct your attention to different heights within the forest. Sloths, monkeys and birds belong to the region’s wildlife. Guided observation helps you interpret movements and shapes among the leaves.

You can plan a nature day around your own interests. Perhaps you want longer birdwatching or time looking for sloths. I discuss the focus with you and arrange the guide.

Manuel Antonio and Espadilla Sur beaches belong to the national park. Forest trails connect the coastal landscape with accessible park areas. A visit can therefore lead from wildlife observation down to the sand.

The park beaches form part of a regulated visit. I confirm admission and open trails for your travel dates. Your other beach days can be planned outside that visit.

Quepos is the neighbouring town for arriving in this coastal region. The road continues from there towards Manuel Antonio. Accommodation occupies different locations along this stretch of coast.

I discuss journeys between accommodation, restaurants and the park entrance with you. Your preferred time by the sea also shapes your base. A companion can bring other wishes into the same stage.

Manuel Antonio can add free Pacific days to a round trip. La Fortuna and Monteverde offer different nature experiences beforehand. Volcanic landscapes, cloud forest and this coast create clearly distinct stages.

I arrange the stages according to your available time. The park visit receives its own day in the plan. Additional nights can leave room for beach time and outings around the region.
