Tropical forrest and with some smaller hills. Most of the land is already used to raise cattle.
The half-island is one of the few refuges for squirrel monkeys. Howler monkeys and white face monkeys are pretty common. There are several kinds of snakes, birds and plenty of sea life to discover.
From May until December it s pretty wet and the only access road might get closed.
Take a bus to Puerto Armuelles from the border or from David (Panama). Make sure you get there before noon in order to catch the '''only''' car which goes until "Bella Vista".
Walking or horseback riding are the most common forms of transportation due to the bad roads.
Beautiful beaches, nature, animals, rural life.
There is one little store with the absolutely necessary in "Bella Vista". So all the fresh food you need you'd better buy in Puerto Armuelles. The tap water is drinkable but stay away from the streams because there is a lot of pollution from the cattle.
'''''Mono Feliz''''' - This American owned property has 4 cabins (20 US per person and night) and offers breakfast, lunch and dinner. Campers are welcome and have to pay 5 US per night which includes the use of the pool, showers and bathrooms. If you bring your own food you can use the kitchen for a US$3 extra fee. Tell the driver of the car to "Bella Vista" that you want to get off at "El Medio" and from there find your way along the beach to the ''Mono Feliz'' (Happy Monkey) Lodge.
Keep away from cocaine packets who might get stranded once in a while.
Ask the locals when the car is going back because this depends on the tides since the car is passing the beach.
