Manuel Antonio National Park sits approximately 170 kilometers (106 miles) southwest of San Jose on Costa Rica's central Pacific coast. The journey takes about 3-3.5 hours by car through mountains and coastal areas. The route descends from the Central Valley offering scenic views before reaching the coast. Many travelers combine San Jose arrival with beach time at Manuel Antonio, making it a popular first or last destination for Costa Rica itineraries.
Yes, Manuel Antonio is Costa Rica's most visited national park, experiencing significant crowds especially during dry season and weekends. The daily visitor cap helps manage numbers, but popular trails and beaches still see congestion. Arriving at opening time (7am) provides quieter experiences before tour groups arrive midmorning. The compact park size concentrates visitors, though exploring lesser-used trails and visiting during green season reduces crowding. The wildlife and beaches justify the popularity despite crowds.
Manuel Antonio National Park is Costa Rica's most popular park, famous for pristine white sand beaches, lush rainforest, and abundant wildlife including sloths, monkeys, iguanas, and tropical birds. The small park combines Pacific coastline with jungle trails, offering swimming, hiking, and guaranteed animal sightings. Despite its compact size, Manuel Antonio delivers quintessential Costa Rican biodiversity with stunning beaches like Playa Manuel Antonio accessible directly from rainforest trails within the protected area.
Essential items include swimwear, reef-safe sunscreen, insect repellent, water, snacks (no single-use plastics allowed), walking shoes with good grip, and waterproof bag for electronics. The park prohibits outside food except water and snacks. Lockers at the entrance store valuables during beach time and hiking. Bring cash for entrance fees and locker rentals. Binoculars enhance wildlife viewing, though not essential. The humid climate requires light, breathable clothing and sun protection.
Manuel Antonio hosts remarkable wildlife including three monkey species (white-faced capuchin, howler, squirrel), two-toed and three-toed sloths, iguanas, coatis, agoutis, and over 180 bird species including toucans and parrots. The park's biodiversity results from transitional forest between dry and rainforest zones. Early morning visits offer best wildlife viewing when animals are most active. Guides help spot camouflaged creatures, though many animals appear along trails regularly.
Dry season (December-April) guarantees sunshine and perfect beach weather, though this peak period brings maximum crowds and highest prices. Green season (May-November) offers afternoon rains, fewer tourists, lower rates, and lush landscapes. The park limits daily visitors to 600-800 people, so arriving early ensures entry during busy periods. Weekdays are less crowded than weekends. The tropical climate maintains warm temperatures year-round for comfortable visits anytime.
