THE EXPERIENCE
Two waterfalls. Rainforest. Swimming. One unforgettable day.
Your Nauyaca adventure begins with an approximately one-hour drive from Manuel Antonio or Quepos into Costa Rica’s southern Pacific countryside. From there, a tractor ride and guided rainforest walk take you toward Nauyaca’s two waterfall tiers, surrounded by tropical flora and fauna.
The upper waterfall rises approximately 150 feet, while the 75-foot lower falls open into a natural swimming area where you’ll have time to swim, explore and enjoy the surroundings. The experience includes round-trip transportation from Manuel Antonio and Quepos, tractor access, rainforest hiking, swimming time and a traditional Costa Rican lunch.
