This was mostly a travel day. It was a 5 hour drive to our next destination, Manuel Antonio, on the Pacific coast. Along a rocky dirt road we continued to have views all the way to the Gulf of Nicoya. There were stops for road construction along the way. Mario commented that these projects have been going on for decades (possibly a slight exaggeration from someone that is endured many trips on this route).
Along the way we stopped to walk across the bridge where there are always many crocodiles just below in the river and along the shore. Apparently they congregate there to feed on the cruise ship passengers on their excursions.
Our hotel near the town of Quepos was close to a large public beach. We had a swim in the ocean then after Happy Hour in the hotel pool we went back to enjoy another great sunset.
We keep coming back to Adventure-Life for custom tailored, out of the ordinary, non-touristy trips and they deliver the best every time. The trip planners know how to put together just what we are looking for.

We have been working with Adventure Life for 5 years now and it is very easy to plan out our trips. Our holidays include customization of activities and side trips along with the standard packages available on the Adventure Life website. Kevin, Jess, Mary Rose and their teams have many recommendations that have enhanced our travel.

We had a great experience- they were very helpful in trip planning and making sure we got to do all the activities and see the places we wanted. There were some things we couldn't do/see due to the time of year being the rainy/low season and they steered us away from those. We had never been to Costa Rica before and it gave us a good overview of this lovely country.
