Tortuguero

A magical spot located on the Caribbean coast which is one of the major protected areas of Costa Rica.  It is a very important locale for the spawning of seven species of sea turtles. Among them the green turtle which is an endangered species.

To get to this remote region you have to take a boat through several canals and natural lakes. During the trip you will observe a wide variety of species such as crocodiles, otters, manatees, and other native species to Costa Rica. This region was declared a National Park in 1976.  It has approximately 19,000 hectares of protected forest and nearly 50,160 hectares in marine life as a protected zone. It is one of the main Rain Forest's that exists in the province of Limon.
