Worth knowing:

Costa Rica’s lush nature is especially intensive when approached with a dash of adventure and discovery. As there are often no harbors with fixed piers on the pristine coasts, we land with our motor inflatable boats (zodiacs). It’s worth getting up early for our excursions, because birds, monkeys and other animals are most active at sunrise and in the morning.
