is an adventure lover’s haven. The terrain here is wild and in many parts unexplored, giving this region an aura of mystery and seclusion. This part of Costa Rica is home to the breathtaking
Parque Nacional Corcovado
along with many beautiful remote beaches and superb wildlife. Not easily accessible by road, getting to South Puntarenas is well worth the trip to see this undiscovered part of the country, where nature is at its most pristine.
What makes coming to South Puntarenas so special is that you get the chance to leave the hustle and bustle of city life behind in favor of a more secluded and quiet location. Whitewater rafting in South Puntarenas is top notch as many important rivers flow through this part of the province. The Rio General, the Rio Chirripo and the Rio Ceibo all run through this region, giving many whitewater rafters the chance to navigate through some of the most isolated parts of Costa Rica, untouched by man.
Whitewater rafting in South Puntarenas also gives tourists the opportunity to observe and explore this remote part of Costa Rica and discover the incredible wildlife found here. From rare species of birds to endangered animals, a plethora of wildlife can be seen in this part of Costa Rica, which cannot be found anywhere else in Costa Rica. Regarded as
one of the most biodiverse areas in the world, much of the flora and fauna in Costa Rica are indigenous
.
To try whitewater rafting in
South Puntarenas
, your best bet would be to find a tour operator in

When looking for a whitewater rafting company, remember to look for an experienced outfit and always ask for recommendations. Make sure that you wear your safety gear and do ask for a bilingual guide on your trip. Get price quotes from three to four operators before you choose the best one and look for operators who offer meals and transport as part of their whitewater rafting excursion package.
