MANUEL ANTONIO | COSTA RICA

Manuel Antonio is the country’s smallest, but most famous national park. Whilst it is no secret and can get busy in high season, it is certainly one of Costa Rica’s most picturesque corners. Tiny Manuel Antonio village has a beachfront and some restaurants but the best beaches are found inside the park. All the hotels are located up on the rain-forested hills behind the village with spectacular views out to the Pacific. The national park and wildlife are the area’s main draws but other activities such as kayaking, fishing and catamaran tours are available for those looking for Costa Rica adventure holidays.

Manuel Antonio is part of the Central Pacific region of Costa Rica. The best time to visit is generally considered to be the drier half of the year that runs from December until end of April. May is a transitional month and can be a nice time to visit with less crowds. Please be aware that rain can occur at any time of year.

As one of Costa Rica’s most loved destinations, Manuel Antonio is a wonderful place to relax and enjoy the pristine natural environment.
