In this video, I take you from the lush rainforests of Monteverde to the pristine beaches of Manuel Antonio. This itinerary is packed with breath-taking scenery, insider tips, and unforgettable experiences.

🌴🚗✨ In Part 2 of our epic 14-day self-drive journey through Costa Rica, we leave the misty heights of Monteverde Cloud Forest and hit the road to explore the stunning Pacific Coast.

We’ll take you along the scenic route from Monteverde to Manuel Antonio, with a stop at the famous Tarcoles River to spot crocodiles. Then, we’ll settle into the unique Hotel Costa Verde, where jungle meets ocean, and spend days soaking up the sun, exploring Manuel Antonio National Park, and capturing stunning drone footage of the coastline.

But the journey doesn’t stop there! We’ll drive south to the laid-back town of Dominical to see surfers catching a wave. Pass through Uvita, home to the iconic Whale's Tail beach, and then venture to the culinary haven of Ojochal, where we spend a curious evening at The Bamboo Room.

Finally, we’ll wrap up our adventure in Puerto Jiménez, the gateway to Corcovado National Park and a paradise for nature lovers, before our stay at Bosque del Cabo Rainforest Lodge.
