Things To Do

Manuel Antonio may lack the glitz and glamour of more well-developed beach resorts in Costa Rica, but it holds a special magic that’s really emblematic of Costa Rica’s glory. If you’re seeking languid hikes to secret white-sand beaches, howler monkeys, and sloths, head to Manuel Antonio.
The area including and surrounding seven-square-mile Manuel Antonio National Park combines the allure of rainforests, beaches, coral reefs, hiking, and astonishing wildlife sightings. Manuel Antonio has a unique vibe, as it’s both a fun-loving resort town and the access point for what many believe is the crown jewel of Costa Rica’s majestic parks.
