If you are a turtle enthusiast, then there is one place in the world that you will want to vist: Tortugeuro National Park located in Costa Rica, is home to four different species of turtles which all live on various beaches throughout this national park. Each year over 50,000 people travel to see these turtles alongside the beauty of the forests and swamp lands.
There is a vast array of wildlife throughout Tortugeuro including over 300 species of birds, 57 amphibian species, 111 reptile species, and 60 mammal species. You see wildlife at just about every turn.
Over the past few decades there has been a lot of development which puts a stress on the wildlife and environment. This is mainly felt within the western parts of the park due to excessive logging and hunting.
For travelers wanting to experience the Tortugeuro National Park, please make sure that you are environmentally aware and clean up after yourself if you travel to any of the beaches. Keep in mind these are turtle nesting grounds.
If you are planning a vacation to Costa Rica, make sure that you schedule in some time to visit the park and get a wonderful experience of wildlife and adventure everywhere you go.
Planning Your Next Trip with Atlas Travel Center
At Atlas Travel Center, we’ve spent over 35 years helping travelers turn ideas like the one in this post into fully realized journeys. Whether you’re reading this as inspiration for a trip you’re already planning or as the first seed of a travel dream, our advisors are here to take it from concept to confirmation — handling every detail along the way.
What sets Atlas apart isn’t just our longevity in the business — it’s the depth of expertise we bring to every booking. Our agents are specialists, not generalists. Many have personal experience at the destinations they recommend, onboard the ships they book, and with the tour operators they partner with. When you work with an Atlas advisor, you’re getting counsel grounded in real experience, not just what’s on a website.
Why Work with a Travel Advisor in the Age of Online Booking?
Online booking tools have made it easier than ever to assemble a trip — and also easier than ever to make an expensive mistake. The lowest price on a comparison site often omits a resort fee, books a room category you wouldn’t choose if you saw the photos, or locks you into a cancellation policy that offers no flexibility. Our advisors know the inventory, the fine print, and the suppliers well enough to navigate all of it on your behalf.
More importantly, when something goes wrong — a flight cancels, a ship changes its itinerary, a resort overbooks — a travel advisor is the difference between hours on hold with an 800 number and a quick call to someone who knows exactly who to call. We’ve been solving those problems for clients since 1987, and we’re very good at it.
