Why Arenal
Arenal is one of Costa Rica's most iconic destinations, where a perfectly shaped volcano rises above rainforest, rivers and natural hot springs in a landscape defined by nature at its most dramatic. Surrounded by lush tropical scenery, the region combines adventure, wildlife and relaxation while showcasing some of the country's most spectacular views.
At the centre of the region stands Arenal Volcano, whose distinctive silhouette dominates the surrounding landscape and provides a striking backdrop to much of daily life. Hanging bridges, rainforest trails and wildlife-rich reserves reveal a world of tropical birds, monkeys and exotic plant life, while waterfalls and rivers flow through the forests below.
Natural hot springs, fed by geothermal activity beneath the volcano, offer a more relaxing side of Arenal, with many hidden amongst beautifully landscaped gardens and rainforest surroundings. Luxury lodges, boutique retreats and secluded eco-resorts provide exceptional bases for exploring a destination that perfectly captures Costa Rica's extraordinary natural beauty.
