Welcome to Rio Tarcoles, where tourists stop to view these ancient dinosaurs.
I've heard a few stories about this place, one being that locals sometimes toss live chickens off the bridge to put on a "show". I also read somewhere that a drunk man was bet $20 to swim across the river...and he did, but didn't quite make it.
If you are at all amazed by crocodiles, this place is crazy cool. I've been here a couple of times and still get excited by the number of crocs there are. Once in awhile you'll see a stork slowly walk up to a croc, almost as if he's doing a dare, and the croc will slowly swim towards him. You get your camera ready waiting for something to go down. The stork usually smartens up and flys off though.

Holiday Inn Express San Jose Costa Rica Airport by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"Great hotel to stay at when first arriving in Costa Rica. They have a 24/7 airport shuttle which works great when arriving on a late flight. The rooms are comfortable and have blackout curtains to block that early morning sun! They also have a very nice breakfast offering with helpful staff. The hotel in walking distance to some of the car rentals. We used Economy and they were most helpful. Overall this is a great spot to start and end your trip to Costa Rica!"
