Dusk pulls the forest into focus: humid air thickens, the understory exhales, and a chorus of insects and frogs rises to meet you. Guides lead small groups down narrow trails where blue morpho butterflies glint in the last light and streams dare you to follow their silver ribbons into the dark. Night here is a change of costume—a cathedral-like canopy becomes a pitch-black theatre where eyeshine and high, frog-like calls take center stage.

Manuel Antonio’s protected area was created in the 1970s to preserve coastal rainforest and marine habitat on Costa Rica’s central Pacific shore, becoming one of the country’s most visited parks.
