Introducing Northern Caribbean

A vast network of rivers and canals wind their way through this remote region – Costa Rica’s wettest. Lush forests, filled with waterbirds and sleepy sloths, line the edges of these waterways. The long stretches of otherwise empty beaches are nesting grounds for three kinds of sea turtles, and more green turtles are born here than anywhere else on earth. It’s not easy to get here – in fact it’s accessible only by boat – but the Amazonian atmosphere is well worth the journey.
