A remote southern peninsula often described as one of the most biologically intense places on Earth, wrapped in lowland rainforest and fringed by empty beaches. Beyond the famous national park at its heart, travelers base in Drake Bay or Puerto Jiménez for wildlife boat trips, gold-panning history, and Golfo Dulce kayaking. Scarlet macaws and all four Costa Rican monkey species are everyday sightings.
