Often called the “Amazon of Costa Rica,” Tortuguero is famous for its series of canals and nesting green sea turtles. Boat safaris and kayak tours reveal monkeys, sloths, caimans, and tropical birds. The lively Caribbean town of Puerto Viejo offers surfing, beach hopping, cycling, and a relaxed reggae-infused atmosphere. Whilst in Puerto Viejo, snorkelling is a must-do activity in Cahuita National Park - with one of the best coral reefs in Costa Rica.

Hotels in Limón

In destinations like Tortuguero, many lodges are only accessible by boat, offering an immersive rainforest experience surrounded by a host of wildlife, including nesting sea turtles during the right season. Sustainability and conservation are often central to these properties, with many working closely alongside local communities and wildlife projects. Inland, lodges can be luxurious and unique. Some, such as Pacuare Lodge, is assessable by rafting in from the Pacuare River. |
