Cahuita National Park is right on the Caribbean beach. A tour takes about 2-3 hours.
We walk the path through the rainforest and see sloths, capuchin monkeys, but also snakes, hummingbirds, wrens and even several green basilicas.
Back we take the path along the white sandy beach and see a few coatis and enjoy the Caribbean feeling.
The national park is open daily from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. (as of March 2022).

Hiking

The Cahuita National Park can be hiked through in three stages from Cahuita to the end at Puerto Vargas (a little more than 8 km in total). At the first tip of the promontory of the national park is Punta Cahuita. Here you have to decide whether to return the same way to the entrance at Cahuita or continue the hike to the end at Puerto Vargas. From the second entrance or exit back to Cahuita you can only get along the road in large parts.
