Visiting Manuel Antonio from Playa Flamingo

Manuel Antonio is Costa Rica's most visited national park — rainforest running straight into white-sand coves, with monkeys and sloths practically guaranteed. It's on the Central Pacific, a long way from Flamingo (think five hours by road), so it belongs on your itinerary as a separate stop, not a day trip.

If your route includes it, these are the bookable park walks, catamaran trips, and adventure tours travelers rate highest.

Come relax on one of the most beautiful beaches in the world on our secluded section of beach in Manuel Antonio where the scarlet macaws fly over head and monkeys leap from the trees. Conveniently located along the main stretch of beach, but tucked away enough to offer a little privacy from the busyness of the main section of beach further down. Please keep a couple of things in mind: Beach Vendors: Our beautiful setting is a public beach, which means you'll encounter various independent vendors. While we focus on providing top-notch water activities, we cannot regulate the vendors' presence or their offerings. Dining Recommendations: We often point guests to a convenient local spot for food and drinks. This is purely a recommendation for your comfort. Please be aware that Dante's Water Sports is not connected to the restaurant's ownership or pricing. To help you manage your budget, we strongly encourage you to review the menu and confirm all prices before placing your order.
