The small village of Tortuguero, on an island separated from the mainland by the Tortuguero River, can only be reached by boat or plane. Nicknamed the "Central American Amazon" due to its marshy canals that run through the rainforest, navigation to hotels and local activities all happens by boat through the dense jungle waterways where you might see crocodiles, caiman, manatees, jaguars, sloths, monkeys and a host of migratory birds. The colorful beach town protects the nesting grounds for perilously endangered sea turtles. Unique and sustainably built 2 to 4-star hotel accommodations offer a variety of amenities including much needed swimming pools for this hot and humid area, spa services, international cuisine, all meals, even ziplining! Tours are available to visit the town, go birdwatching, cruise the canals, or go on a night hike to watch the turtles nest during season. Tortuguero's isolated location helps preserve its bountiful wildlife.
