Tortuguero National Park**(2)

Whether it's by kayak, by boat, or hiking through forest trails, Tortuguero National Park is a perfect example of tropical rain forest. The park is made up of more than 18.000 hectares and protects a wealth of exotic wildlife including those that gave it its name - turtles.

You can reach Tortuguero via boats or you can fly in to a handy airstrip that lies on the outskirts of town. Traveling in Paradise, then just sit back and enjoy the ride.

There are a variety of ways you can make your way through this watery park that is made up of several canals that twist and turn. Accompanied by our guide, you would be able to enjoy the park to the fullest since they can take you deeper into the park than if you were making it on your own. This trip will afford you excellent views of the surrounding vegetation and wildlife.

There are a few biological stations set up inside the park and are manned by scientists and volunteers. Their purpose is to study the different types of animals and birds found in Tortuguero and to keep the area as impact free as possible.

Between the months of June and September you might want to witness one of the most impressive phenomena of this coast: the nesting of marine turtles. You will want to book for the night tour offered that will take you to the beach in search of these prehistoric creatures that strive to survive and perpetuate their species. This magnificent experience is unforgettable.
