There are a number of waterfalls to see in Guanacaste, but we strongly recommend taking an afternoon to visit "Cartagena Choro " waterfall. This beautiful, hidden gem is located down a short - but steep trail - whose cascading waters you'll be able to hear long before you can see them, they are incredibly powerful. The falls drop into a pond that collects at the base. Perfect for swimming, sunbathing, or just having a great time with friends and family. 
 

Along the hike through the forest, keep your eyes open for various species of colorful tropical birds, amazing reptiles, abundant butterflies, and maybe even monkeys; all of which and more are native to the area. There are also too many varieties of plants and trees to begin to list here. Just bring the family and find out for yourself.
