中美明珠Costa Rica (I) - Turtle Nesting and Sloth

Costa Rica is famous for its eco tourism, which can provide you with well established facilities to do bird watching, whales/dolphin observation, canopy, rafting and turtle nesting observation.

哥斯達黎加以生態旅遊著名,無論觀鳥,鯨魚/海豚觀察,激流和海龜產卵觀察等活動都有完善的設施

The wildlife is spread over different areas depending on the seasons.  I chose to go over Caribbean side to see turtle nesting and sloth.  Basically, in Tortuguero village,  the primary Atlantic nesting site for the green turtle, early in the turtle season, it is also possible to see Leatherback turtle. (Beware that due to the conservation rule for the turtles, it is not allowed to take pictures at night tour to see the turtle nesting)
不同季節,野生動物會於不同地區出現。我選擇了去加勒比海邊,看海龜產卵和Sloth。基本上,在Tortuguero村莊 - 大西洋綠海龜主要的產卵地,龜產卵季初期,也可以看到Leatherback龜。 (由於保護海龜的規則,不會允許看海龜產卵的夜遊團拍照片)

Tortuguero is with many tourists because even in the season like November to early January, when there is no big turtle, we can see a nest of baby turtles make their first run to the ocean.   Moreover, the National Park and the Canal Tour are fascinating with plenty of wildlife to see.
即使是在11月至1月上旬,沒有大海龜季節,我們也可以看到小海龜從巢走向海洋。此外,國家公園和河畔遊也有大量的野生動物。故此,Tortuguero常有許多遊客。


Along the Caribbean side, there are some famous sightseeing points like Puerto Viejo (which is good for surfing and really a beach town), while the quieter sister Cahuita is relatively cheaper and is where Cahuita National Park located.  
Also the Sloth Sanctuary(Aviarios del Caribe) and Jaguar Rescue Centre there are worthwhile to visit too.



加勒比海邊也有一些著名的觀光點,如Puerto Viejo(一個以衝浪聞名的海濱小鎮)、Cahuita(相對便宜,而且Cahuita國家公園就在那裡)。
另外那裡的Sloth Sanctuary和Jaguar Rescue Centre也值得參觀。
