Drake Bay, Costa Rica

We spent 4 nights in the beautiful Drake Bay. It was a 35min flight from San Jose to Drake on the southern Pacific coast. It's one of the least developed and populated areas of Costa Rica. We spent our time walking in the rainforest, kayaking, snorkeling, swimming and relaxing (of course there was school too).

Looking down on part of San Jose. People don't have very big sections and what they do have seems to be roofed.

Our festive plane

Our accommodation

We had rooms in the building on the right.

The view from the comunal area

The local bridge. It was sturdier than it looks.

The view from my bed

The river we kayaked up and down.

It was really humid so water activities and cold beers were always welcomed.

This guy run across the top of the water in front of me.

There was always some sort of wildlife around. Even when walking along a path there were lizards running in all directions.

The island we had lunch on after snorkeling.

There were heaps of bright colourful fish, a school of Bigeyed Jacks and a Green Turtle.

The beach on the island was crawling with hermit crabs.

This guy was hanging out just along from our room.

It poured with rain on our last day but it was still warm.

I was just checking how wet it really was.
