Solo Travel Tips· Solo Friendly

Manuel Antonio National Park is Costa Rica's most visited and most rewarding solo nature experience — white-faced capuchin monkeys are literally on the beach, sloths hang at eye level on the entrance road, and the park trail to the viewpoint is beautiful. Arrive early (park has a daily visitor limit). The beach outside the park is safe for solo swimming. Quepos town nearby has budget accommodation and good restaurants.
