Overview

Nearby Quepos offers a convenient starting point for the incredible Manuel Antonio National Park, along Costa Rica’s stunning Central Pacific Coast. Small hotels carefully carved into the hillside enable vacationers to get a close-up view of the area’s sparkling seas.

The town is also a gateway to magnificent Manuel Antonio National Park, where visitors can experience a biodiverse rainforest teeming with unique tropical plants and wildlife, including hundreds of species of colorful birds, sleepy three-toed sloths and endangered white-faced capuchin and howler monkeys.

Playa Espadilla beach, near the entrance of Manuel Antonio National Park, offers another great escape.

What To Do

Hike through the biodiverse Manuel Antonio National Park. Watch a butterfly spread its wings for the first time at the park’s colorful Butterfly Botanical Garden; and keep an eye out for colorful birds and native creatures throughout the area.

Enjoy a bite with a view in the town’s charming Marina Pez Vela Marina.

Take a rainforest canopy or iguana tour, or horseback ride around Manuel Antonio.

Head out to sea on a kayak or take an adventurous whitewater rafting trip.

Or enjoy a fun-filled day onboard a catamaran as you glide past verdant islands and stunning rock formations, and snorkel amid colorful parrotfish, angelfish and perhaps even some dolphins.
