The Tortuguero National Park is 51,870 acres and one of the last large areas of tropical rain forest in Central America. Monkeys, storks, and river otters can often be seen along the water in addition to more than 300 species of birds. |

During the season (June through October) the highlight of your trip to Tortuguero is actually standing a few feet from a 300 pound Green Sea Turtle while she lays 80-100 eggs, covers up her nest, perhaps digs a false nest to throw off predators, and, finally, after more than an hour, returns to the sea. Tortuguero is conservation. In 1962 the late Dr. Archie Carr began to study and tag the thousands of Atlantic green sea turtles that every year from June through October come to Tortuguero Beach to lay their eggs. |
| Set on the black water canals of Tortuguero, Tortuga Lodge's dinning room and bar feature a shaded verandah; the dining has been called "the best in Costa Rica" by many of our guests. Tortuga Lodge's restaurant starts at the river dock and reluctantly moves inland. | ![]() |
