La Fortuna Costa Rica - Arenal Volcano Travel Guide | 90+ Countries With 3 Kids
Welcome to La Fortuna, a charming little town in Costa Rica!
This cute town was founded in the 1930s and it was originally called “El Burio.” However, locals decided to change the name of the city to La Fortuna, which means “fortune” in Spanish, because of the fertility of their lands and the vast variety of tourist attractions it offers.
It is located in San Carlos Canton, nearby the Arenal Volcano, which you can clearly see from the village. Its first eruption happened in 1968 when it destroyed the small town of Tabacón and spared La Fortuna at the same time. Even though this was Costa Rica’s most active volcano during the past few decades, and one of top 10 most active volcanos in the world, since 2010, Arenal has been dormant.
The Arenal Volcano National Park is definitely worth a visit, especially if you are into bird-watching. 850 different bird species can be found here, along with coatis, deer, jaguars, various snakes and white-faced capuchin monkeys.
If you are looking for accommodation in La Fortuna, Selina is our recommendation. This place is ideal for digital nomads. It is located in the center of the town, has a fantastic co-working office, fast internet and plenty of space where you can relax, like comfy hammocks, huts around the bonfire, movie room, library, and outdoor yoga studio. They also have a pool, bar and a restaurant that serves terrific food, but also a shared kitchen where you can cook for yourself.
Enjoy the video!!!

This is one of the viewpoints that we go up to on the horseback riding tour, you have a view of Arenal Volcano, the rain forest below and this is one of the nicest horseback rides in the Arenal area. If you want more information you can check the links below and thanks for watching.

Costa Rica - La Fortuna (Beautiful) Part 3
Welcome to my travelchannel.On my channel you can find almost 1000 films of more than 70 countries.
See the playlist on my youtube channel.Enjoy!
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.

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?

Termalitas Del Arenal Hot Springs Costa Rica
It was mid-afternoon now and we decided to hit the hot springs. There are a bunch in the La Fortuna area but we had a particular one in mind because of it's price and atmosphere. It was called Termalitas Del Arenal and it only cost us 9 colones. We felt like we were robbing the place...Let's start off from the minute you walk in. It's not a super grand entrance like some of the other hot spring but your immediately drawn in by all the lush greenery, trees and hot spring fed pools around you. Families and park benches under tiki huts lined the paths to different temperature pools. There was a food stand and a bar as well available to patrons. The best part about this place was that you could bring in your own food and alcohol. Mind blow. That would never fly in America, lucky Costa Rican's!
So, the unique thing about this hot springs was that you could pick a hotter spring (like really hot) or a cooler spring and everything in between. I thought this was really cool and I always like my options. Most people were hanging out at the biggest spring (more like pool) where the water-slides were. By far my highlight at this place was the unguarded slides. Literally anything goes and nobody is there to tell you otherwise. People were going down three at a time, standing up, backwards. It was pretty crazy and fun to watch!

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.
