Puntarenas is at the foot of
mountains and at the site of some of Costa Rica's most beautiful beaches.
Nearby are nature walks along the trails of Carara Biological Reserve, a
central Pacific forest with an incredible variety of plant life. Its
marshes, formed by the seasonal river flooding, are rich in waterfowl,
amphibians, and reptiles. Monkeys, butterflies, and many species of birds
live here.
Nearby excursions include San Jose, the capital of Costa Rica, and the
Poas Volcano National Park. See also
