Fortuna Costa Rica- SECRET place REVEALED

http://TravelCostaRicaNOW.com

Hey EVERYONE! Here it is- FINALLY. This is what you've been asking for. This IS the semi-secret waterhole in La Fortuna Costa Rica, complete with rope to Tarzan yourself off into the water below. Locally known as 'Salto', which means 'jump' in Spanish. We tons of emails constantly asking where this place is. This is the video for YOU, especially if you're planning a trip to the La Fortuna, Arenal area anytime soon. You won't want to miss SALTO. There's plenty of things to do in and around the La Fortuna area, but this one is FREE and should be on everyone's MUST DO or at least MUST SEE list. Even if you're NOT interested in swinging off the rope or swimming, check out this VIDEO on why you should see SALTO regardless. Hope it helps. Pura Vida.

Hi,

Just happened to find your videos today. It's surreal to see what Fortuna looks like now. I lived there 20 years ago. I was a volunteer teaching English at the high school. Back then, I was the only "gringa" living in town. I used to hang out at El Jardin - and get free "platos del dia" from Henry & Johnny. This "salto" video reminds me of the time I went during rainy season - I stubbed and broke a toe on the rocks. Hijo... Can't believe all the 2-storey buildings!

@Chicktrips Yeah, it has really changed...and mostly in the last couple years........ i think the recession will help though....building was getting a little out of control..... hotels EVERYWHERE....and a few are 'vegas' style... but it's all good... love living here. Thanx for the comment

I love all of your videos they are really helpful. I wish I had found your videos earlier. I visited Costa Rica a while back and it would have been nice to know a lot of what you guys have on your videos. I had to buy a lot of what I needed in Costa Rica, which is really difficult if your not a local. The place that we stayed at was a hotel called Barcelo and another hotel that we stayed at was by Volcan Arenal. Thank you guys for doing these videos. Costa Rica is often misunderstood. Thanks
