A Great Destination for Your Spring Travels with Friends and Family

Costa Rica’s South Pacific region offers many beautiful places to visit. But there are definitely two very special ones that you can’t miss. The Nauyaca Waterfalls located in a canyon approximately eight meters wide, and the Ballena Bay, located on the Osa Peninsula, inside the Marino Ballena National Park.

The biggest fall in Nauyaca is forty-five meters high in free fall, that’s more than 130 feet, which forms a bottom pool that’s 3,000 square feet wide and almost 20 feet deep. The falls are recognized worldwide for their beauty and for it’s contributing to ecotourism.

First, horseback riding tours, departing from the main office, passing by Don Lulo’s house, where you will have a delicious and typical Costa Rican meal. And second, a walk/hike through the mountains, where you take a journey to reach the falls while enjoying the beauty of the tropical rainforest.

Once you reach your final destination, you can jump into the water and freshen up from the long walk or ride. Nothing better after a good hike, than swimming in natural waters.

What to do at Ballena Bay?

At Ballena Bay you can walk on a very unusual beach, where you have ocean shore on both sides. There is a 1.8km long sand strip that divides the two coasts and hosts the most marvelous sunsets.
