The canals and rivers of Tortuguero National Park are one of Costa Rica's most popular eco-tourism destinations. The park and small town of Tortuguero can only be accessed by boat or small aircraft. The lodges provide comfortable accommodations, knowledgeable natural history guides, boats and family-style dining for their guests. Considered one of the world´s major nesting sites for the Atlantic green turtle, you can see these great creatures between July and October.
