🌊 La Leona Waterfall Tour
A hidden turquoise canyon you have to see to believe.
Tucked away near Curubandé, La Leona Waterfall is one of Guanacaste’s best-kept secrets — a surreal turquoise cascade pouring out from volcanic rock inside a narrow canyon. Getting there isn’t easy... and that’s exactly why it’s unforgettable.
With Green Tours CR, this is more than just a waterfall photo op — it’s a real adventure. You'll hike forest trails, wade through shallow rivers, pass through natural tunnels, and finally emerge face to face with this stunning blue gem.
And after the journey? A well-earned, wood-fired Costa Rican lunch prepared by a local family.
