    About Manuel Antonio

    Located on Costa Rica’s central Pacific coast, Manuel Antonio is one of those places that truly has a little bit of everything. Think jungle hikes, stunning beaches, tons of wildlife, and a huge range of adventures—catamaran cruises, ATV tours, whitewater rafting, ziplining—you name it!

    We’ve explored the national park, swam in hidden coves, and spotted more sloths and monkeys than we can count. Whether you’re here to relax or chase thrills, this spot delivers.

    Check out our guides below for everything you need to plan the perfect trip!
