Playa Ostional is one of the most amazing beaches in Costa Rica and the entire planet! It is known to nest in several species of turtles, the most common of which is the Olive Ridley turtle.
Ostional Wildlife Refuge was created to protect the Olive Ridley sea turtle and during the rainy season, you can see thousands of turtles landing to lay their eggs. We can assure you that it is an absolutely exciting experience: witnessing the spawning (arribada) or hatching (Nacimiento) is a must in life and will remain an indelible memory!
