An extremely cold swim in the San Ramon waterfalls, Monteverde. So cold it was quite painful, in fact. Had to be done though.
» A selection of member photos for Costa Rica
Shame I have such a stupid expression in this photo, but look at the size of the beetle on me! This was at World of Insects, Monteverde. I have holes in my t-shirt from the hooks on its feet... A bubbling volcanic mud spring in Rincon de la Vieja national park. This is the other reason to visit Costa Rica: Mount Arenal, one of the few active Volcanoes in this hemisphere. This is a rare shot as the mountain is usually covered in mist. At night when it is clear and the volcano is spewing, it is a wonderful show of nature's fireworks. One of the other people doing the Monteverde canopy tour. You can see just how high up the zip lines were, the last of the 16 was 600 metres long and 90 metres above the forest floor. The enormous (2nd largest in the world) crater of Volcan Poas, some 1.5km across, with a lake in its centre. An incredible view once the clouds cleared after 30 minutes of waiting.
A sloth near Volcan Poas. Such cool creatures. This was a 3-toed sloth. An iguana we spotted during a trip up the Sarapiqui river. Puerto Viejo Punta de Uva beach, near Puerto Viejo, Caribbean coast. An extremely cold swim in the San Ramon waterfalls, Monteverde. So cold it was quite painful, in fact. Had to be done though.
