Tortuguero Canals

Winding through Tortuguero National Park, the Tortuguero Canals are a network of natural and man-made waterways flanked by lush tropical rainforest. This remote area, inaccessible by roads, offers a serene and unspoiled environment where visitors can explore by boat. The canals’ shorelines teem with wildlife, including sunning caimans, tree-hugging sloths, and a vibrant array of bird species such as agami herons, sungrebes, and kingfishers. A journey through these waterways provides an intimate encounter with Costa Rica’s rich biodiversity, far from the typical tourist crowds.
