Costa Rica - Parque National Manual Antonio



















Continuing our travels down the coast exploring national parks, we're in a port town called Quepos. Just 9km down the coast is Parque National Manual Antonio, a coastal national park which was saved from developers in 1972 (although Maudie helped move some trees today...).

There are loads of animals in this park, and it's split on the peninsular is not unlike Railay beach in Thailand, a 50 meter shard of beach on each side connecting a bulb of land in the sea to the mainland.
But what the developers missed was the worlds gain, this beautiful area has epic trails from the beaches through the cliffs, along palmforests and tropical rainforest. And the animals were absolutely fantastic. Here are the landscape images, animal videos will follow...
