Top Active Leisure Sport in Costa Rica

My advice is to pack a picnic lunch. There are plenty of great spots to chill and enjoy the scenery without spending a fortune at the cafe.

I suggest arriving right when the park opens at 10 AM. You can beat the crowds and hit the popular rides first, like the roller coaster, with minimal waiting!

Don't forget to bring sunscreen! I forgot mine and ended up getting sunburned, especially if you're going on rides where you’re exposed to the sun!

Definitely rent a surfboard for the morning I found the waves were much calmer and easier for beginners before noon. Plus the vibe is more relaxing without a ton of people around.

Be careful when renting surfboards - I suggest checking multiple shops for prices. Some places really jack up the rates, but you can find better deals if you look around.

I think grabbing lunch at a local sodas instead of beach restaurants can save you some money. There are delish options like casado for a fraction of the price!

i think the best time for a safari tour is around 3 pm. the animals are more active then, and the lighting for photos is pretty great too.
