Tárcoles & Carara — central Pacific. Ask us to pair this with a wildlife stop between San José and Manuel Antonio.
A boat safari on the Río Tárcoles — home to some of the largest American crocodiles in Costa Rica, basking on the banks — plus mangrove birdlife: roseate spoonbills, herons, kingfishers and, overhead, wild scarlet macaws. Easy, spectacular and family-friendly.
