Costa Rica
Kayak & SUP
See the jungle from the one angle it never expects you.
Paddle Tortuguero's flat black canals at dawn, caimans holding still along the banks and howler monkeys working the canopy overhead. Slide a board through the mangrove tunnels of Damas Island near Quepos, or go out after dark off the Nicoya Peninsula when every paddle stroke lights up blue with bioluminescence. On Lake Arenal, mornings are glass — just you, the volcano, and the wake behind your kayak.
