9 Best Places to Visit in Costa Rica in 2025
"I think of Tortuguero as Costa Rica’s version of the Amazon: it dominates the northern coast and spans over 77,000 acres of rivers and canals through jungle, and its biggest draw is the large number of turtles that come to nest along the shoreline (best seen in April and May); even in the off-season you can hike and take canal cruises and there’s abundant wildlife year-round — if you want to get off the grid you can take a three-day guided tour of the park with Destiny Travel Costa Rica for around $600 USD." - Matthew Kepnes
