Arenal Volcano ranks second on the list of Costa Rica’s 7 natural wonders.<\/p>

If you see the geometrically perfect cone of Arenal Volcano while driving along the highway, you’ve arrived in La Fortuna de San Carlos. This small, picturesque town has become world-renowned for its stunning natural beauty and is known as an ideal destination for adventure, birdwatching, or simply relaxing.<\/p>

This is an active volcano, but it last erupted in 2010. The area has two main economic activities: cattle ranching and tourism, which is the primary source of employment and economic stability for its residents.<\/p>

Why enjoy the area, especially the hot springs? These springs originate from underground activity, are odorless, crystal clear, and sulfur-free. The waters are regenerative and surrounded by lush tropical vegetation. They create a relaxing atmosphere for both body and mind that you simply must experience while in Costa Rica.<\/p>

To learn more about the Arenal area, we have two tour options from San Jos\u00e9, which can be combined with other attractions along the way.<\/p>
