Tortuguero is one of the last hopes for survival of rare sea cows, or manatees, as well as three metre long crocodiles. Anyone wishing to bring the boat to the end of branches which lie suspended over the edge of the water, and just remain in silence, may hear, after only a few seconds, the myriad sounds of the jungle. The regular person in the street who is stunned by the city noises, may find this experience to be quite exceptional. says Mario Boza, head of the National Parks organization.
The channels are lined by millions of bromelians and orchids that thrive on the exuberant vegetation. This jungle is also the home of tapirs, jaguars, monkeys, ocelots, pacas, small felines, and other mammals, as well as macaws, pelicans, parrots, and many other spectacular varieties of birds.
When you come to Costa Rica don miss the opportunity, if you are a nature lover, to make this tropical jungle trip which will prove to be unforgettable.
