Best Tours & Activities in Ciudad Cortés | Book Online

Ciudad Cortés is a charming gateway to Costa Rica’s wild southern Pacific coast. Surrounded by lush rainforests and rivers, this small town offers visitors a blend of authentic local life and access to untouched natural beauty. Whether you're seeking adventure in nature or a peaceful retreat, this destination promises a unique experience off the typical tourist trail.

A Glimpse into its Past

Originally established as a banana company town in the early 20th century, Ciudad Cortés has transformed over the years. The town kept its welcoming spirit, while the lush surroundings now attract travelers eager to explore the less-discovered corners of Costa Rica.

When to Go

Dry season, from December to April, is generally the best time to visit. During these months, the weather is sunny and pleasant, perfect for outdoor adventures. However, those seeking greener landscapes and fewer visitors might find the rainy season, from May to November, equally rewarding.

How can I get there?

The town can be reached by road from San José or by domestic flights to nearby regional airports. It is an ideal base for exploring the Osa Peninsula and Marino Ballena National Park.
