Cabo Blanco Reserve

Tags rainforests, beaches, oceans, national parks and reserves, bird & wildlife watching

White Cape Reserve, locally known as Cabo Blanco, is one of the most lush and beautiful places in Costa Rica. The tiny island one mile from the reserve's southern tip earns Cabo Blanco its name. Cabo Blanco Island is known for its abundance of seabirds and their -- rather frankly put -- bird droppings. As a result, the tiny landmass shines brilliantly and beautifully white in the sun. Fortunately, there is no need to worry about such guano in the reserve's mainland, where visitors enjoy nothing but the most unspoiled beaches and tropical rainforest.
