Hike

To get to Catarata Manantial de Agua Viva, you need to drive 8 miles south of Tarcoles bridge and take a left towards Villas Lapas Hotel. Travel 3 miles up the dirt road and you will see a sign that says 'Cascada.' Park your car there and take the well marked trail uphill for about an hour and you will be rewarded with an awesome site and a cool swim. The waterfall is broken into 3 distinct sections with the tallest one being about 300 feet. This waterfall is not well known by tourists so it is rare to find other people there.

Refugio Nacional de Vida Silvestre Playa Hermosa-Punta Mala stretches 13 km southeast along the Pacific from the village of Hermosa to the village of Esterillos Oeste. It encompasses wetlands, a small lagoon, mangrove estuary, rock reef, tropical rain forest and of course spectacular beaches with some of the best surf breaks in the world. There are no trails but the whole natural area is quite easy to access and explore from the beach east side of the village of Esterillos Oeste.
