Awesome Things to Do in Manuel Antonio + Day Trips

May 22, 2021 By Sammi 54 Comments

Manuel Antonio is one of the most popular destinations in Costa Rica and is one of the best places for first timers. If you plan to visit and are wondering “What is there to do in Manuel Antonio besides beach?” don’t worry! Manuel Antonio has plenty of fun things to do to keep your days busy.

Here are our top things to do in Manuel Antonio and you can also check our day trip recommendations, Manuel Antonio hotel recommendations and travel tips.

Visit Manuel Antonio National Park

This is definitely a must for things to do in Manuel Antonio. Forbes once called Manuel Antonio National Park one of the most beautiful in the world! The national park has well maintained hiking trails with the perfect combination of jungle and beach and is absolutely teeming with wildlife.

The national park is open Wednesday – Monday and the entrance fee is $16 USD plus tax per adult foreigner.

How to get to the park: There are buses that run from Quepos to the national park entrance about every ~30 minutes and they make stops on the hill. If you take this bus, get off at the last stop and walk to the park entrance. If you’re driving, drive all the way to the park entrance and you will see a couple of local parking areas.

The park has several trails that lead to beaches and viewpoints and along the way, you can see monkeys, frogs, snakes, deer and more.

Plan your visit to Manuel Antonio National Park.

Should You Do a Guided Walk in Manuel Antonio National Park?

Since a lot of wildlife live in the park, you can hire a guide if you’d like to learn more about the flora and fauna in the area. Most guides have a telescope so you can see the animals up close and use your phone to take a photo. The first sloth I ever saw was thanks to a guide in Manuel Antonio National Park!

things to do in Manuel Antonio - sloth

If you really want to see a sloth in Costa Rica, this is one of the best places to see them and having a guide with trained eyes will almost guarantee you a sloth sighting.

We highly recommend hiring a guide or booking a tour if you want to learn more about the flora and fauna and see more animals. Great experience for kids!

If you’re interested in just hiking, swimming and enjoying the park at your own leisure, a guide is not necessary.

Night Walk

If you want to see more wildlife, go on a night walk! Manuel Antonio is a fantastic place in Costa Rica to explore the jungle at night. Manuel Antonio is home to many frogs, insects and snakes being the tropical rainforest and many of these creatures go about their daily lives when the sun goes down.

Parasailing

On Playa Espadilla Norte, the beach outside the national park, you can go parasailing. You get a spectacular view of the national park from the air, a view that you can’t get any other way!

Parasailing

I did a 15 minute ride with my parents which was one of the BEST things we’ve ever done together. It was so much fun and I’m really happy I got to experience it with them! 15 minutes felt way longer than it sounds and it was worth it.

You can book it right on the beach or contact the parasailing company Aguas Azules to schedule your parasailing experience.

Visit Kids Saving the Rainforest Sanctuary

This sanctuary works hard to rescue and rehabilitate injured animals in the Manuel Antonio area and it was indeed founded by kids, in fact two 9 year old girls in 1999. Kids Saving the Rainforest helps the local communities to educate, promote and raise awareness about the environment. Visitors can take a tour of the sanctuary to learn about how they heal and rehabilitate various wild animals such as monkeys and sloths.

A tour costs $60 USD for adults and $45 USD for children under 12. The sanctuary is about 4 miles outside of Quepos on the Blue Bayann Inn property and a 4×4 is required. I did the tour with my parents and it was very educational. For a more hands on experience, they have a “volunteer for a day” where guests can learn how to prepare food, feed and care for the animals.

Another option is if you’re staying at the Tulemar Vacation Rentals and Resort, you can go on a sloth walk with the Sloth Institute to see more wildlife and learn about the work they do.

Catamaran Cruise

Experience the ocean by taking a sunset cruise or a snorkeling tour. The visibility in this area is not the best for snorkeling but it’s a super fun way to enjoy the gorgeous coastal views and possibly see some wildlife like dolphins. Read what our Manuel Antonio catamaran cruise experience was like!

Ocean King catamaran

If you visit during the peak Costa Rica humpback whale season (August and September), there is a possibility to see humpback whale moms and babies!

Zipline/Rappel/ATV

For an adventure in Manuel Antonio, go ziplining! This is one of the most fun things to do in Manuel Antonio that’s great for anyone looking to spice up their vacation.

Fishing

Near Manuel Antonio is the Quepos marina called Marina Pez Vela. This marina is home to gorgeous million dollar yachts and luxury fishing boats. Quepos is one of the best places in Costa Rica go in shore and off shore fishing so if you love to fish, then you have to book a fishing charter for the day.

The Quepos marina

The marina is only a 10 minute drive from Manuel Antonio and you can check companies like Reel In Luxury Fishing, Quepos Fishing Charters or Jackpot Fishing.

Visit Playa Biesanz

Playa Biesanz is a fun beach to visit for the day. It’s close to the national park but with a little bit of a tricky entrance. You have to walk a ways to this beach and it’s very rocky so wear water shoes or closed toed sandals. Make sure to check the tide because it comes in really high so it’s best to go in low tide. If you don’t want to climb up the rocks back to the path, you can walk to the Shana Hotel.

The entrance to this beach is on the hill. All the locals know this beach so you can ask them for the directions. There are vendors selling drinks, offering chairs and umbrellas and renting snorkel equipment. Playa Biesanz is ideal for kids because it’s in a bay so the waves are very calm.

Kayaking to Playa Biesanz

We visited Playa Biesanz on an ocean kayak trip. Although we tried to go snorkeling, visibility was very bad so we just hung out at the beach instead.

Damas Island Mangrove Kayak

The Damas Island mangrove is an excellent place to enjoy a leisurely day wildlife watching. You can kayak which is the best way to see wildlife since you can get close up to them without much noise. Or you can go on a motorized boat ride which is great for seniors. Your guide will point out different wildlife like anteaters, snakes, birds and more.

We saw a crocodile, mangrove boa snake, woodpeckers, iguanas, monkeys, kingfishers and herons during our kayak and boat ride in Damas Mangrove.

Kayaking through Damas Mangrove

Even though you can see plenty of wildlife in the national park, the mangrove is home to different animals. We highly recommend experiencing the mangrove by kayak. It’s so peaceful and I love the feeling of gliding silently over the water to get up close to the wildlife, surrounded by only the sounds of the jungle.

Watch the Sunset

You can’t miss watching the sunset! This is one of the best things to do in Manuel Antonio to wind down the day. Since all the high end hotels in Manuel Antonio offer a splendid view of the park and the beach, you’ll have a wonderful view of the sunset. The first time we visited Manuel Antonio, we stayed at Hotel La Mariposa which has an amazing infinity pool.

things to do in Manuel Antonio - watch sunset

If your hotel doesn’t have a view, watch the sunset from the beach, Playa Espadilla Norte. It is equally as lovely!

Many restaurants on the hill also have a beautiful view and offer happy hour from 4-6 PM. Cafe Agua Azul, Rafaeles Las Terrazas, Emilio’s Cafe, Barba Roja and El Avion all have amazing ocean views and are great places to enjoy a drink and watch the sunset.

White Water Rafting

Looking for a fun outdoor adventure? Go white water rafting! From Manuel Antonio, you can raft El Chorro, Naranjo or Savegre. El Chorro is best March and April and is for extreme and experienced rafters, Naranjo is June to November and Savegre is all year round. Savegre is best for first timers or families.

Manuel Antonio Day Trips

If you plan to use Manuel Antonio as a homebase, there are many day trips you can take from there thanks to its excellent location. Here are some of our favorites.

  • Nauyaca Waterfalls: These waterfalls are deep in the jungles outside Dominical. Hike, take a 4×4 truck ride or horseback ride to these gorgeous waterfalls. About a 50 minute drive one way. You can also take a tour with transportation with Paddle 9.
  • Tortuga Island day cruise: Cruise through the Gulf of Nicoya to Tortuga Island’s beautiful white sand beach. Snorkel, jet ski, hike, banana boat or just lay out in the sun. From Manuel Antonio, tour companies usually require a minimum of 4 passengers. You can also drive to Jaco (1 hour) or Puntarenas (2 hours and 20 minutes) to meet the boat.
  • Los Campesinos Ecolodge Waterfall: This lovely lodge in the rainforests outside of Manuel Antonio has waterfalls, natural pools and hiking trails on their property. Great for a less touristic activity for those who love nature and hiking.
  • Caño Island snorkeling: For great snorkeling, drive 1 hour to Uvita to do the Caño Island snorkeling tour. The Manuel Antonio area doesn’t have good snorkeling but Caño Island Biological Reserve does!
  • Jaco: If you didn’t stop by Jaco on your way to Manuel Antonio, you can spend a day there to watch the surf competitions at Playa Hermosa or explore the town.
  • Marino Ballena National Park: This national park in Uvita is completely different to Manuel Antonio National Park with dark sand beaches, way less people and awesome humpback whale watching!

    Fantastic website for CR!

    We, family of 5, are going to be Manuel Antonio for 2 night (total 6 day CR trip) and trying to decide between Parador resort (slightly upscale) vs Hotel San bada (next to national park).
    We will have a rental car and definitely want to see the national park.
    Would you recommend one hotel over the other in this situation?
    Thank you !

    Your website has been SUCH an amazing resource.. thank you!! Right now, we’re planning on flying into San Jose, spend the night (late flight) then drive to La Fortuna the next day. We’d like to stay there a couple of days and then drive from La Fortuna to the national park. I can’t seem to find how that road is. Would we be ok driving that as first timers? We’ll stay there a few days before heading back to the airport. We only have a week and thought those two locations could give us the volcano, the beach and rainforest. Thanks again for all your information!

    They have an animal sanctuary where guests can see the animals they have in permanent care there, usually they have sloths but it is whatever they have at the sanctuary at the time since their goal is to release the animals that can be rehabilitated. You can message them beforehand to see.

I am considering booking the Kids saving the rainforest tour but wondering if I will actually be able to see sloths up close there or not?

    Hi There,

    Thank you for all this info.

    My wife and I will be traveling to CR in late Feb, a total of 9 nights. We are thinking of doing 4 nights in La Fortuna and 4 nights in Manuel Antonio. Generally speaking, is this enough time to explore both areas?

    For Manuel Antonio, if we spend 4 nights there, is it worthwhile to go to Jaco or Uvita for a day each?

    For La Fortuna, what would you recommend for a 4 night stay?

    Thanks so much!

      I believe you can (I am not 100% positive though because they are doing a lot of changes to Manuel Antonio NP so don’t quote me), the thing I know is that they only let a certain number of people in the park a day so if they hit the limit, they won’t allow you to go back in. I would ask your hotel to be absolutely sure if you can leave and go back in without paying, I have usually heard it is OK if you keep and show your ticket to the entrance office but they have made a lot of chances to the parks’ rules regarding number of visitors this year.

    Would somewhere here work? I wasn’t sure where the parking lots were

      There are parking lots near the entrance owned by locals, honestly parking is super tight in that area so anywhere you can actually find a spot will work. Last time I went there they charged I think like 3000 colones a day but it could be more now in high season (we went in September).

    Reply
    • Sammi says

      January 30, 2019

      Yes, for night walks, Manuel Antonio is better because Monteverde is a much colder climate and so you don’t see as many frogs or amphibians up there. Manuel Antonio is more humid and is proper rainforest so you can see lots of frogs, snakes, toads and insects.

    Hi there,

    I’ll be travelling around Costa Rica next month, hoping to do lots of hiking so MA is definitely high up on my list! Still sketching a plan but thinking of coming down from Monteverde and staying awhile then on to Uvita / Dominical.

    Just wondering how long you think is a good time for exploring the area? I was thinking maybe 5 days / a week but not sure if that’s too much – or not enough??

    Also, what’s your view on the best place to base myself out of (really it’s probably the park and the beach I’m most interested in) – is Quepos better, or should I stick to MA itself? I’m undecided yet whether I want to rent a car so getting to restaurants etc. might also be a consideration.

    Thank you so much – your site is really helping me planning this trip so I’m super-grateful to you guys for putting this info out there!

    All the best 🙂

      Hi Aimee, 5 days is pretty good for Manuel Antonio, it’s a small area so I would even recommend less, like 3-4 nights. Most people spend one day at the park, one day at the beach and that’s it. If they stay longer, it’s usually because they’re using Manuel Antonio as their homebase for their vacation but since you’re planning to moving on to Uvita/Dominical then I’d say 3-4 nights is perfectly fine.

      You can stay in either Quepos or Manuel Antonio. Quepos is the town so it’ll be more noisy and not as nice hotels but it also tends to be cheaper. There are restaurants everywhere in Quepos and Manuel Antonio so that’s not a really huge issue, but there are the nicer restaurants in Manuel Antonio. THere is a local bus that goes from Quepos to the national park every 30 minutes though so it’s easy to get around that area.

    Both destinations for amazing, you can see lots of wildlife in both Manuel Antonio and Puerto Viejo. Hiking is better in Manuel Antonio because of the national park, Puerto Viejo doesn’t have like a designated hiking, but you can walk on the beach in Cahuita NP or down the other beaches to Punta Uva but for proper “hiking” Manuel Antonio NP is excellent for it. I wrote a post about it you can see here: Hiking Manuel Antonio National Park

    Then for kayaking, I haven’t actually seen anyone kayaking in either destinations but Manuel Antonio has catamaran cruises and I’m not 100% sure but I think I have seen kayak rentals around there.

    They are both touristic destinations, but Puerto Viejo is a small town, lots of Europeans go there and it’s not as developed or commercial. Manuel Antonio is super touristic with tons of luxury hotels everywhere, so if that’s something you guys you like/don’t like, that can help make your decision too. Puero Viejo has more rustic jungle hotels (there are a few with AC), Manuel Antonio has some of the most luxuriest and expensive hotels in CR (but they have awesome ocean views). Also you can surf in both destinations but surfing in Manuel Antonio is more for short boards due to the waves at Playa Espadilla Norte, the breaks aren’t long enough for long boards. Puerto Viejo has good surfing only certain times of the year.

    ALso keep in mind that Puerto Viejo has Caribbean weather meaning it is a lot more humid and can rain all year long. June is actually one of the rainiest months for the Caribbean so it might be better to go to Manuel Antonio. June is rainy season but it’s the transition for most of the country so you may not run into any rain and just be cloudy or you may run into the occasional shower but generally, Manuel Antonio is very hot.

    Hi Sammi,

    My wife and I going to Costa in June for the first time (first for me, she’s been before twice but stayed at a resort) for two weeks. We’re doing a week in La Fortuna, then our last week we want to stay in either Manuel Antonio OR Puerto Viejo. What do you think would be a better option? I’m into adventure sports (hence Fortuna) and surfing, and we both like easy hikes, kayaking, and seeing wildlife.

    Wow! There are so many things to do. It will probably take half a month to visit all those places and really enjoy them. Oh, and also, I’ve never seen a sloth in person. Do they let you come close?

      Yeah there is just so much to do in Costa Rica! Amazing for such a small country. Usually sloths are pretty high up in the trees but if you see one on the ground or lower, they usually don’t get freaked out too much by people or are mean. But you should never touch/hug or anything to the sloth as it stresses them out.
