Las Baulas National Marine Park

There is excellent bird and wildlife watching in the park. The nearby Tamarindo Wildlife Refuge, a salt water mangrove estuary, is thick with black-bellied whistling ducks, roseate spoonbills, yellow-crowned night herons, kingfishers and crocodiles. Howler monkeys, raccoons and coatimundis are also frequently spotted.
