There are many islands in Costa Rica. Some are inhabited
and others are absolute biological reserves. But noone owns
them. We provide a listing of islands and what you can expect
to see there.
Isla del Caño
Located about 15 miles off the Osa Peninsula, Isla del Caño
offers many incredible sights and even mysteries. The island
is an absolute biological reserve. The crystalline waters
make a perfect place for diving, with an inestimable amount
aquatic life. On the island one can find archeological ruins...Indian
burial sites, and the mysterious spheres made of stone. Some
of these giants can weigh up to two tons. Noone knows who
and how these were made or what their purpose is. The island
is easy to get to from Drake Bay and Corcovado. Pods of whales
are often seen along the channel between the main land and
the island.
Isla del Coco
The island and the area around it are a National Park. The
island lies between Costa Rica and the Galapagos Islands,
so getting there is no mean feat. The rewards are great, however.
Numerous waterfalls tumble off the side of the high cliffs
directly into the ocean below. The water is so clear you can
easily see the incredible numbers and variety of fish right
on deck. Beautiful trails connect the two main bays, where
pirates and travellers have left there graffiti on the stones.
And, of course, there is the pirate treasure that is rumoured
to be buried there. Even if there is no gold, this island
holds a better treasure-nature untouched.
