On a visit to Los Campesinos, you’ll need to drive yourself from Manuel Antonio for around 1 hour along a bumpy mountain road (4WD recommended). In total, Los Campesinos is home to 35 hectares of forest, both primary and secondary. The reserve is located just 25 kilometers from Quepos within lush mountains areas and similar fauna to Manuel Antonio National Park. Los Campesinos is a small privately-owned nature reserve and lodge that’s rather unknown to most visitors in Manuel Antonio. You should book the cruise online in advance as there are limited spots available. The cruise is available both in the morning and afternoon for $95 USD and leaves from Quepos. Overall it’s one of the best ways to spend a few hours in Manuel Antonio! As the sunset, we enjoyed our dinner before heading back to port. Then, we cruised the coastline around Manuel Antonio and got to see lots of birds, including macaws. We saw lots of fish and had some fun with the onboard slide. Unfortunately, we didn’t get to see any on our tour, but you may be luckier than me.Īfterward, we visited a really cool snorkel spot and jumped in the water to explore. We set off at 2 pm and spent the first-hour enjoying drinks and looking for whales and dolphins. The tour I did was fantastic and included unlimited drinks, dinner, snorkeling, swimming, a really fun and knowledgeable guide, and a great crew. After a few days doing lots of wildlife activities, I was ready to sit back, relax and enjoy a few drinks out on the water. One of the best things I did in Manuel Antonio was a sunset sailing tour. The best for swimming is Playa Espadilla Sur and Playa Manuel Antonio.
It’s a great way to spend a day, and even those without a guide should see wildlife.Īlong with the above trails, there are also a couple of beaches within the park to enjoy. These range in length however, it is possible to complete all of the trails on the map below in one day. Or, just choose a couple of trails and walk at a slow pace (the slower you go, the more chance you’ll have at spotting wildlife!)Īlong the way, you’ll spot monkeys, macaws, sloths, snakes, and other wildlife. Throughout the park, there are many short hiking trails that lead through specific vegetation where you’ll find lots of local species of wildlife. This map shows all of the different hiking trails in Manuel Antonio National Park.
