Costa Rica is home to a wide variety of tropical beaches, lush rainforests, verdant mountain sceneries, waterfalls, volcanoes and many more natural attractions, a great part of which lie protected in national parks. One of the most popular and impressive national parks is the Manuel Antonio National Park located on the Pacific Coast of Costa Rica. With its enormous biodiversity and well-maintain pathways this park is an all-time favorite among visitors to the Manuel Antonio area. What if we were to tell you however, that this area hosts yet another wonderful though less well-known impressive- national park?
The Rainmaker Reserve is one of the area’s best kept secrets. A privately-owned rainforest reserve, it hosts one of the last primary rainforests in Costa Rica and forms a true refuge for a wide variety of rare plants and animals. For instance, did you know that this park is home to 60% of all the flora and fauna species found in Costa Rica?
The main purpose of this neo-tropical rainforest whose landscapes range from humid rain forest to misty cloud forest, is sustainable development. The Rainmaker Conservation Project, located in San Rafael Norte moreover actively supports the teachers and school in order to create awareness for the importance of rainforest conservation to those whose everyday existence is threatened by its loss.
Only five percent of this natural reserve is open for tourism and offers a system of trails along the Río Seco River, completed by wooden bridges which allow you to traverse this enchanting jungle… The capturing views of the coastline, fresh mountain streams, splendid waterfalls and the astonishing beauty of the rainforest make this reserve the ideal destination for nature lovers.
The perfect way to explore this naturally beautiful area of Costa Rica, is with a stay in the Arenas del Mar Beachfront and Rainforest Resort located right at the beach of Manuel Antonio. This luxurious and highly sustainable resort has very recently launched a new tour to the unique Rainforest Reserve.
