Rio Blanco National Park
Rio Blanco National Park Review
This is a tiny national park (105 acres) with a big waterfall. The Rio Blanco waterfall splashes over rough limestone boulders into a deep pool, which you can jump into for a refreshing swim. You reach the waterfall after hiking a well-marked trail. Upstream a short distance from the falls is a nice area for a picnic, shaded by trees and flowering bushes.
- Address: 30 mi (49 km) west of Punta Gorda between Santa Cruz and Santa Elena villages, on road to Jalacte, Punta Gorda
