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.
