The park serves as a sanctuary to several species of animals, some endemic to the island, including spiny-black tailed iguanas, green iguanas, macaws, agoutis, monkeys, turtles, hummingbirds, parrots, and basilisk. The park offers a variety of activities, such as walking through trails, crossing a suspended bridge over a small lagoon, and visiting various animals in their natural state.

Activities: We booked a shore excursion to Gumbalimba Park animal preserve, which has friendly capuchin monkeys from the mainland. We spotted one sloth in the trees, lots of large iguanas, a rodent-like local rabbit, fluffy-footed local chickens and toucans. We took a lot of photos with the parrots and monkeys
Highlights: Tween traveler couldn’t get enough of the monkeys, she let any little capuchin that came near her sit on her arms, shoulders and head and petted their soft fur ✨
