Travel to Magnificent Manuel Antonio and Dominical

Manuel Antonio is perfect for those wanting a mix of wildlife spotting, beach time and adventure. Set on Costa Rica's stunning Central Pacific Coast, the main draw of the region is the small but impressive National Park, which has been named one of the most beautiful parks in the world. Its beaches have also been frequently mentioned as some of the most stunning globally too. Not only that but watersports enthusiasts will be happy with some incredible snorkelling and sea-based activities to choose from. This area is popular but there are still plenty of ways to get peace and quiet on your stay. 

Just south of Manuel Antonio is laidback Dominical, which feels more quiet and off the beaten path than its northern neighbour but also has lots to offer travellers. The beaches are gorgeous and the rainforest is teeming with wildlife. Most people come here for the surfing but stay for the quaint central street that includes everything from yoga studios to craft beer breweries. The hiking trails are incredible and you can even visit waterfalls nearby.
