Tortuguero, Costa Rica is a great nature area. Many countries contribute scientists to study the Sea Turtles which deposit their clutches of eggs on the ocean side of this beautiful area. Costa Rica has been careful to balance tourism with conservation of the environment. The Tortuguero Estuary was inaccessible by bus and it was necessary to be transported by boat to this lovely area. If ever I have the privilege to return to Costa Rica, Tortuguero is where I want to stay the whole time.
