Costa Rica's Varied Nature

The tropical rainforest hugs the beach

Exploring Costa Rica from Corcovado on the Atlantic coast, via Torteguero on the Caribbean coast, the Irazú volcano with its three craters, Ciudad Quesada, Arenal volcano, Sarapiqui river, the Monte Verde and Santa Elena rainforests. Finally, Manuel Antonio, which is beautiful, but more like a park than wild nature. 28 photos.

The peaks of the volcanoes hide behind the clouds

Travelogue Bicycle vacation Costa Rica with 26 photos

Bicycling in a tunnel of green in tropical rainforest where rivers and waterfalls rustle, orchids bloom and monkeys swing screaming from tree to tree. On the Pacific coast it's dry, but even here every now and then the peaks of the volcanoes are hidden by clouds. The Panamerican Highway turns out to be not too busy and better for bicycling than many local roads full of rocks, potholes and bumps. On the peninsula of Nicoya suger cane is harvested; here you can swim with pelicans, while the local population is entertained by a bull rodeo. On the Caribbean coast it's wet. This is Chiquita land. 26 photos.
