Rio Celeste One Day Trip         $100+tax

What makes Rio Celeste even more interesting is that it is actually an optical phenomenon, what is responsible for this perception are the aluminosilicates that cover the rocks lying along the bottom of the river. 

The legendary tale of this intriguing phenomenon is that when God was painting his gorgeous blue skies, he dipped his paintbrush in the river creating the brilliant blue waters.

The tour starts from a nice 1.5 hours trip from the town of La Fortuna. Once you get to the park which is a ranger station, you will find bathrooms and some indications will be provided before getting involve in a good hike through the trails that will take you to the spot where the river turns into blue color !
