Arenal is one of the most exciting
and sought after destinations for the ultimate CostaRica vacation. Arenal and the nearby town of La Fortuna
in Costa Rica offer a wide range of hotels and activities that
rival any top vacation destination. It is impossible to ignore the
allure and majesty of the Arenal Volcano in Costa Rica.
The Arenal volcano and its abundant natural
hot springs, provide the stunning backdrop that makes this natural wonder
an absolute must-visit in Costa Rica. Arenal is the
youngest and most active of Costa Rica’s volcanoes, and is said to
be one of the tenth most active in the world.
Lake
Arenal, Costa Rica‘s
largest lake is a beautiful complement to the southwest slope,
not only for itsnatural beauty, but for the array of activities
in Arenal it offers as well. Additionally, the post 1968 effect
tripled the area of the lake which provides hydroelectric
power for Costa Ricans. Sources site between 40% and 70% of all power
produced in Costa Rica comes from Lake Arenal
hydroelectric.
Activities
for the Arenal Volcano in Costa Rica are many and varied,
including hiking, canopy zip-lines, white water rafting, scenic river
floats, horseback riding, ATV tours, hanging bridges tours, sky-trek, sky-tram,
bungee jumping, canyoning/rapelling, mountain biking, fishing, bird watching,
naturalist tours, butterfly gardens, botanical gardens, Cano Negro National
Park, hot springs, windsurfing, and kayaking. The shores north of Tilaran are world
class windsurfing territory, and the lake boasts great
rainbow and brown bass fishing, as well as kayaking and boat
tours. The level of adventure tours can be from mild to
extreme and anything in between. After a day of exhilarating fun you can return
to your hotel in Costa Rica ready for pampering. My favorite hotels

you refreshed for whatever is in store for the evening or the following
day. Source.
