If wild and wonderful are your jam, then Tenorio Volcano National Park is a must for your Costa Rica agenda.
A spectacular park of baby-blue waters, bubbling mud, dual-toned rivers, gurgling hot springs, and steamy geysers, this is a natural wonderland of volcanic proportions.
While the park’s eponymous volcano is gently active (and fuels the natural hot springs), the real star of the show is Río Celeste, a cerulean-coloured river that tumbles into a roaring waterfall.
