Manuel Antonio National Park

Ehhh, here is a short one: not worth a visit. It is ok for people who go to CR just for a couple of days and want to spend a lot of money to take photos of animals.

Great marketing. Even greater prices. And the greatest crowds of Costa Rica that made me feel like I was in an amusement park for rich gringos, not national park.

If you went to as many parks and natural havens as me before going to Manuel Antonio, you will be disappointed.

However, later on I heard of a boat night tour through the park and mangroves that is quite nice, lonely and full of animal sightings. Can’t say if it is worth it as I didn’t go, but it sure sounded better than my experience.

The beach is nice, but crowded with only tourists taking photos so it also felt like fake marketing.Les mer
