La Fortuna,Costa Rica
La Fortuna is a rural city located in San Carlos, in the province of Alajuela, Costa Rica.
La Fortuna has the airport which is nearest to the Arenal Volcano, though many visitors also arrive via automobile, to the resorts and hotels in La Fortuna, Castillo, Palma, Monteverde, or Tilaran. Arenal is often cited by scientists as being in the top ten or top 20 of the world's most active volcanoes.La Fortuna is less than 10 km from the peak of Arenal and less than 20 km from the entrance to Arenal Volcano National Park (the entrance is west of the peak, whereas La Fortuna is east of the peak).
Other than the volcano, La Fortuna has tourist attractions such as the La Catarata de la Fortuna, a waterfall that falls from a height of 70 meters, several resorts with natural hot springs temperate enough to bathe in, other day spa services, and day-trips which involve horseback riding, whitewater rafting, hanging bridges, a sky tram, zip-lines, mountain bike, kayak, stand-up paddleboard, and ATV or dirt bike rentals, butterfly farm and Venado Cavern tours, bungee jumping, Laguna Cedeno, El Salto Swimming Hole, and canyoneering.
La Fortuna has a medic station but serious injuries require a medivac (or long travel on roadways), a police station (and another is on the way to El Tapon), gas station, 3 banks, 3 groceries, restaurants (in addition to those in the resorts), post office, and hardware store.
Arenal Volcano Costa Rica
Positioned within Costa Rica's fertile northern lowlands, the Arenal Volcano is an unavoidable presence while traveling within this part of the country. It is tall and imposing and has a reputation that precedes itself. Arenal's perfectly symmetrical shape makes it a sightseer's dream, while its abundance of outdoor activities makes it an easy place to check things off your must-do in Costa Rica list.
Until 2010, it was Costa Rica's most active volcano. Much to the enjoyment of its visitors, Arenal spewed enormous amounts of lava, gas and ash on a regular basis. That eruptive cycle -- which began with the infamous eruption of 1968 -- ended recently. In October 2010, Arenal entered into an indeterminate resting phase. For the time being, visitors will be unable to watch the much-loved explosions, although that could change within a matter of months or years. Travelers to Arenal will still enjoy its bountiful sights, sounds and activities— there are mountains to be hiked, lakes to be fished and rivers to be floated. As one of the country's most scenic and accessible areas, it is a requisite stop on any tour of Costa Rica.
As Arenal's ultimate travel resource, this site is dedicated to providing you with information about the Arenal Volcano and the surrounding area. It's our hope that with the tools and services we offer, you'll be able to plan a fun and memorable adventure to Costa Rica.
You can follow individual links to learn more about La Fortuna, Lake Arenal, and other volcanoes in Costa Rica. If you want more guidance on where else to travel in Costa Rica, just visit our Costa Rica Destinations Guide. It's simple and easy to use.
Lake Arenal
In many ways, Lake Arenal is just as monumental as the volcano that rises above its eastern shoreline. With a surface of over 33 sq mi (85 sq km) and a depth of some 200 ft (60 m), it is Costa Rica's largest landlocked body of water. As such, it provides ample opportunities for activities such as windsurfing, fishing, boating and more.

TRANSCRIPT
We’re going to take a safari boat ride today down the Penas Blancas river. It’s only a 20 minute drive from Arenal and La Fortuna so this is a great tour for those who are short on time or with families because you get to see a lot of different wildlife. This tour is offered by Jacamar Naturalist Tours, who we’re going to go with so we’re going to show you the tour so let’s go.
Our guides are taking off all the rafts and this is like a local house and the river is right over there so we’re going to go over there and start the tour.
Alright so this is our boat and we have our lovely guide Hugo who’s going to guide us down the river. Ready for it? Let’s go.
This is the Penas Blancas river and what we’re going to see today, well nature is very unpredictable but hopefully some monkeys, sloths and birds. Nature always has something important for us to show so hopefully today will be the day. We’re in the Arenal area and La Fortuna which is like twenty minutes from La Fortuna and specifically the northern region of the Caribbean side of Costa Rica so we’re by Arenal Volcano. Hope we can find some animals this morning and it’s a beautiful morning.
The scenery in the river is really pretty, as you can see like the reflection of the trees in the water, it’s super clean, it’s really green. It’s just a gorgeous river to come and watch wildlife, you feel like you’re in like Jurassic Park almost.
The tour ends up at this local family’s house where we’re going to have some snacks and some drinks. The tour was really nice we saw a lot of good wildlife, it was a great day so it was a really awesome tour to see wildlife really close to La Fortuna and Arenal, if you guys want more information about the tour just click on the links below.

Sky Trek is combined with the Sky Tram to go up to the observation deck at the mountain's highest point and then descend through a series of adventurous cables.
Steel platforms, unlike traditional canopies that use wood platforms. Unique and innovative system consists of pulley system so you do not have to use your hands to stop, providing improved safety over traditional canopy.
Sky Tram will take you up to the highest mountain in the area, the cable car will offer amazing views & a guide will explain about the flora and plant.
Sky Walk is a spectacular combination of suspension bridges and trails with heights that exceed the treetops.
Arenal Volcano, in Spanish Volcán Arenal, is an active andesitic stratovolcano in north-western Costa Rica around 90 km northwest of San José, in the province of Alajuela, canton of San Carlos, and district of La Fortuna. The Arenal volcano measures at least 1,633m (5,358 ft). It is conically shaped with a crater spanning 140m (460 ft). Geologically, Arenal is considered a young volcano and the age is estimated to be less than 7,500 years. It is also known as Pan de Azúcar, Canaste, Volcan Costa Rica, Volcan Río Frío or Guatusos Peak.
The volcano was dormant for hundreds of years and exhibited a single crater at its summit, with minor fumaroles activity, covered by dense vegetation. In 1968 it erupted unexpectedly, destroying the small town of Tabacón. Due to the eruption three more craters were created on the western flanks but only one of them still exists today. Since 2010, Arenal's volcanic activity appears to be decreasing and explosions have become rare, with no explosions reported between 2010 and 2012. Rainforest Ecotourism

Baldi Hot Springs in La Fortuna, Costa Rica Arenal
If you're visiting the La Fortuna/Areanl area, the HOT SPRINGS is a must Do. Baldi Hot Springs is one of the top 2 hot springs in the La Fortuna area, with the other one being the world famous Tabacon Hot Springs. Baldi Hot Springs is cheaper than Tabacon and draws a younger crowd, but has a more Disney-esque feel to it. But you won't be disappointed, no one ever is. So after a day of white-water rafting, waterfall repelling, zip-lining, nature hiking, ATV'ing, bike riding or whatever else you may get into in La Fortuna, the hot springs is a great way to relax. In this video, D'Angelo takes you on a little tour of Baldi Hot Springs, so you can see what it's like. I would also encourage you to visit my blog where I compare the two: Check out a tour around Baldi Hot Springs. Want to know the difference between Tabacon and Baldi?
