Manuel Antonio National Park is renowned not only for its incredible biodiversity but also for its idyllic beaches. Surrounded by tropical rainforest and overlooking the sparkling Pacific Ocean, these beaches are considered some of the most beautiful in Costa Rica. The contrast of soft white sand, turquoise water, and lush green palms creates a truly paradise-like setting. While relaxing on the shore, it’s common to hear howler monkeys in the distance, spot curious capuchins in the trees, or watch colorful birds soaring overhead.
This photo collection captures the unique charm of Manuel Antonio’s beaches: the calm of gentle waves, the vibrant interaction between jungle and sea, and the untouched beauty of a place where nature is at the center. From sweeping panoramas to intimate details of seashells and footprints in the sand, each image reflects the essence of “Pura Vida.”
With this series, I aim to transport viewers to a place where time seems to stand still – a tribute to the harmony between land and ocean in one of Costa Rica’s most enchanting national parks.
