This October I decided to take a trip to the Pacific side of Costa Rica during the rainy season so that I could experience the abundant wildlife that supposedly comes out during this time of year. I planned my 10 day journey and based it around staying at an eco friendly 5 star hotel in Manuel Antonio called Arena's Del Mar. My trip would consist of various activities that would immerse me in the local culture and focus on getting the see Costa Rica's wildlife in its natural habitat.
