We take you to some of the most pristine beaches in
Costa Rica. If you enjoy relaxing and watching wild
life you'll love our beach vacations.
CARIBBEAN ISLAND ADVENTURE
Situated just south of Tortugero
National Park, the Caribbean island
village of Parismina is one of Costa
Rica's best kept secrets! Here you will
find all the wildlife and rainforest of
neighboring Tortugero without the crowds.
The same 3 species of nesting sea
turtles visit the beaches of Parismina
in the same numbers. There is an active
movement by the people of Parismina and
the Coast Guard of Costa Rica to patrol
and protect the nests of these amazing
creatures. RainForest World is proud to
support this movement and participate in
nightly beach patrols. Our private 17
acre jungle reserve is home to hundreds
of animal and plant species including 3
species of monkeys, sloths, alligators,
caimans and multitudes of birds.
Facing deserted beaches and backed by the canals
of Parismina, our reserve is a perfectly located
gateway for animals to cross freely and a great
place for you to view them in action
2 DAY BEACH, CANAL AND JUNGLE SAFARI
Day 1
Travel to Cano Blanco river docks on the
banks of the Rio Reventazon for Lunch and
motor launch to the RainForest World
Parismina Private Reserve. A guided trek
through the Jungle where you'll very likely
spot 3 species of monkeys and numerous bird
species including green parrots and Sea
Eagles. Emerge from the jungle into our
beachfront coconut grove. Here we'll enjoy
fresh, traditional "Lime in the Coconut"
drinks and head to the beach for a hike and
swim.
Dinner at an open air, beachfront restaurant
and bar.
After dinner in Parismina, if you have the energy
and the turtles are nesting, you can take an
OPTIONAL private trip with a trained Turtle Guide to
view marine turtles digging nests and laying eggs.
Incredible! This private tour is far better than the
often-overcrowded public tours. (The Turtle Tour is
OPTIONAL in season, only $30 per person extra, 2-person
minimum. SEASON: Leatherback turtles in small
numbers - February to July, peak mid-April to mid-May.
Green turtles in large numbers July to mid-October,
peak late July to late August. Hawksbill turtles
sporadically March to October. There is no guaranty
that we will encounter turtles, but in the peak of
the season we often make several sighting. You do
not need to make a decision for this OPTION until
the day of the tour.)

up through the current of the Rio California where
