Situated within the northeastern part of Costa Rica, Tortuguero National Park is only accessible by airplane or boat. Eleven different habitats co-exist within the park, making for incredible biological diversity. A very wet and humid place, Tortuguero National Park receives up to 250 inches (6,400 mm) of rain a year, and it contains beaches, lagoons, rainforest, swamps and mangrove forests and supports many threatened species. Although there are trails that are mainly used for watching the nesting turtles, the best way to see most of the park is from a boat.
