Cloud forest, volcanoes and two coasts a few hours apart.
What people go to Costa Rica for
- Cloud forest canopy walks and zip lines at Monteverde.
- Arenal volcano, with hot springs at the foot of it.
- Sloths and monkeys in Manuel Antonio and Corcovado.
- Turtle nesting at Tortuguero on the Caribbean side.
- Rafting the Pacuare, one of the best runs anywhere.
