National Park
The Marino Ballena National Park, offers the opportunity to observe one of the most amazing spectacles of nature: the reproduction and birth of the dazzling humpback whales that every year migrate to this area, giving the visitor unforgettable moments.
Costa Rica’s famous whale tail is located at the Park and it’s a result of converging currents. These currents deposit sand on top of the rock formations to create the unique, tail-shaped pattern. It’s nice to walk out onto the rocks and sand that make up the tail. This can be done only at lower tides.
