I recommend National Park Tortuguero because it is extensive network of river and lagoon behind the beaches. The people can see several species of plants and animals, like crocodiles, birds, turtles, monkeys and fish. Moreover, the people can take a trip on boat for many canals of river and enjoy the most beautiful place of Caribbean. The Tortuguero is a small and rural town and the people are very nice. The best moment for visit is the July to October because it is turtle nest egg season.

I recommend tourists visit Chirripo Mountain in San Gerardo de Rivas de Perez Zeledon in southern Costa Rica .. This is a beautiful place to visit, there are lots of mountains and you have to walk slowly 15 kilometer up the mountain. I visited the Chirripo in 2008 with friends, and the trip took 9 hours to get to the camp. It is very difficult but a great experience. Great vegetation and friendly people. The weather is wonderful if you visit this place in March, it is a hot and rainy weather. You can visit the Cross at 3,900 meters above sea level, or Los Crestones and 5 Lagoons and other sites. To visit all places it takes 3 or 4 days. You must prepare yourself before traveling because it requires a lot of physical effort
