Learn Spanish in Manuel Antonio
One of the smallest, yet one of the most beloved of all the National Parks in Costa Rica, Manuel Antonio is a wonderful place to spend time and visit. The park is located on the Pacific Ocean and is framed on one side by beautiful sandy beaches and on the other side by lush rainforests, hills and deep valleys. The Manuel Antonio Park itself is 682 hectares in size and is located just a short 132 kilometers from San Jose. Most travel to the area occurs between December and March, as this is the dry season and is perfect for hiking and wildlife watching. Spanish schools in Manuel Antonio often plan weekend or day trips to see all around this beautiful natural area. While in the park - whether you're at one of the Spanish schools in Manuel Antonio, or not - it's possible to see over one hundred different species of animals, two hundred different species of birds and thousands of different types of insects. The Jardin Gaia, Costa Rica’s major wildlife rescue center, is located just outside of the Manuel Antonio Park, and it's possible to take tours through the rescue center area. Damas Island, just a short distance from Manuel Antonio, is an excellent spot for bird watching as well as crocodile viewing. The mangrove forests on the Island provide shade and cooler temperatures for day trips and hiking.
Fishing is popular outside of Manuel Antonio Park. Many of the students that attend Spanish schools in Manuel Antonio and surrounding areas spend their weekends fishing for mahi mahi, sailfish, yellowfin, marlin and amberjack.
