Nestled along the Southern Pacific coast of Costa Rica is the award-winning destination of Manuel Antonio. This gorgeous coastal town has everything you could wish for on a tropical vacation. Stunning beaches, miles of lush rainforest, an abundance of wildlife, a variety of tours and restaurants, and to top it off, the incredible Manuel Antonio National Park.

The public beach here, Playa Manuel Antonio, is flanked by several different restaurants and bars. The waters are fairly calm here and perfect for beginners looking to learn to surf. Grab a cocktail from the bar and lay out on a beach chair or bury your feet in the warm sand.

Manuel Antonio is home to 3 species of monkey, 2 kinds of sloth, toucans, parrots, iguanas, basilisk lizards, butterflies, poison arrow frogs, and more! This is a paradise for any animal lover or bird watcher!

Canopy zipline tours can take you on a whirlwind adventure through the tip top of the Costa Rican rainforest, whitewater rafting will get your adrenaline pumping as you and your boat members cascade over rapids, and a sunset catamaran tour and show you dolphins, whales, and the incredible Pacific sunset.

Take a day to chill out at the spa and get a soothing massage, or go to one of the many delicious restaurants for a gourmet meal of fresh sea food!

There’s simply no end to what you can see and do in Manuel Antonio, Costa Rica.
