Mangrove Fishing Guanacaste

When staying in the Guanacaste region, the province is well known for outdoor activities; that includes a few of the best places to stay whilst enjoying a fishing vacation. The many volcanic protrusions in the Province are the starting point for countless rivers flowing down to the coast. Rivers meander through the countryside slowing briefly in pools, ponds, or lakes and Mangroves before continuing its journey to the sea. All the rivers, streams, lakes, lagoons, river-mouths, and the beaches too, have many species of sporting fish ready and waiting for a fight.
