Landscape Photography: stunning beauty of Cahuita National Park in Costa Rica

in #nature6 years ago

Hi there my Steemit friends and followers!

As you might already know from some of my previous posts, almost one third of the total area of Costa Rica is covered with national parks and protected areas, which is one of the highest numbers of all countries in the world.

This amazing Central American country is therefore famous for astonishing nature and abundant and extremely diverse wildlife and even though I knew all of this prior to my trip to Costa Rica, I was completely stunned and speechless when I saw all the natural beauty with my own eyes.

One of the national parks that I visited there is the Cahuita National Park, a terrestrial and marine national park found on the Caribbean coast of Costa Rica. Covering over 1,100 ha of land and 22,300 ha of the sea, Cahuita is home to hundreds of animal and plant species. Here are some photos I took there.

Great photos.
The crab is delicious.
And the scenery is amazing.
Thank you very much for sharing, @phortun

I thank you for this nice comment ;) Not sure if the crab was delicious thouh - I didnt eat him :D And even if he was edible, he was too cute to be eaten ;)

And I'm glad he's alive - very handsome. ))

Thanks for the fine photos, complemented by some excellent info about Costa Rica.

While the country is well-known for its amazing natural beauty, I did not know that 1/3 of its area is set aside as preserved and protected parkland. That in itself is an amazing fact

Thanks for stopping by! Oh yeah, the fact that almost 1/3 of the country is made up by national parks is amazing! And the number has actually been increasing as more and more areas are desingated to become national parks in future :) Way to go, rest of the world! :)

this is where the king of nature tourism because there are many number of natural attractions. Many interesting things that we can find in this place. Ranging from national parks, mountains, beaches or even extreme sights we can explore while in Costa Rica. I am very impressed, you can take photos very well
Thanks @phortun

Thank you for this nice comment ;) This country has a lot to offer indeed.

Thank you Rina! :)

Great pictures from a nice place on earth, sharp and clear colours.

Thank you :) Costa Rica is very colorful.

Great pictures. My cousin just got back from Costa Rica and was telling me about the parks there. Looks amazing!

Thank you :) Costa Rica is a stunning place and I am sure your cousin had a great time there.

Beautiful pictures. I hope I will get there one day and see it with my own eyes

Thank you, I just checked your blog and I think you will love Costa Rica once you make it there ;) Welcome to Steemit, Anita! :)

Krásné fotky, krásná příroda. Tohle by byl fakt pěkný kalendář ;-)

Děkuji, je to taková moje srdcovka, právě kvůli té přírodě ;)

To jsou zase pěkný "kalendářovky" ;)

Máš spočítáno, kolik jsi zhruba ve světě udělal fotek ?

No složky si zakládám celkem poctivě, takže to můžu zjistit přesně :) Ale hrubým odhadem to bude v řádech jednotek tisíců. Krásných míst je holt spousta :)

Cahuita National Park looks very beautiful @phortun. I haven't made it to Costa Rica yet. 😊

Hopefully, you will visit this amazing country too one day ;) For a nature lover like me, it is a heaven on Earth.
