Quepos and related destinations

Forget the guidebooks - Manuel Antonio National Park is where monkeys will steal your lunch while you're photographing sloths that move with glacial deliberation. Marina Pez Vela offers sport fishing adventures where catching something impressive seems almost mandatory. The Pacific waves around Quepos balance perfectly between 'terrifying' and 'exhilarating' for surfers of all abilities. Biesanz Beach provides a quieter alternative with fewer tourists but equal beauty. Titi Canopy tours reveal the rainforest from above, where screaming through the treetops is perfectly acceptable. After adventures, Cascada El Salto offers a refreshing plunge beneath a waterfall that locals prefer to crowded beaches. Remember to book national park visits early - the daily visitor limit fills quickly.
