The Manuel Antonio/Quepos and Jaco areas in the Central Pacific are two of Costa Rica’s top beach and Nature destinations. Enjoy sandy beaches with average year- round water temperatures of 82 degrees (28° C) cooled by soft tropical breezes that comfort the soul and establish Manuel Antonio as a jungle paradise.
Manuel Antonio is one of only two locations in Costa Rica where you can see all four types of monkeys; spider, howler, white faced and the endangered squirrel monkey. The Manuel Antonio National Park is small only 682 hectares however it epitomizes everything you want to see: stunning beaches, a magnificent setting with islands offshore, lush rainforest laced with a network of easy to walk trails, and wildlife galore. The nearby sport fishing town of Quepos has the quaint heritage of its maker, the United Fruit Company. It boasts enough nightlife for the young and not so young to "salsa" until the small hours of the morning at local discotheques While Manuel Antonio relatively remains an eco-friendly area, dining and nightlife are among the best of any beach destination in Costa Rica. An abundance of nearby adventures promise to keep you busy every day of your stay if you so desire in this beautiful white sanded national park area. You can also, as you enjoy the scenery, dream about when in 1519 the legendary Ponce de Leon became the first Spaniard to lay eyes on the twelve miles of rugged coastline comprised of surf swept beaches and protected coves. Most hotels in Manuel Antonio are NOT located in the beach, most are on a hill between the town of Quepos and the beach. Visit us at www.tachiztravel.com
