Butterfly Garden

  • Address: 7 km/4½ mi southeast of town at Punta Uva, Puerto Viejo de Talamanca

Fodor's Review:

Unlike most such establishments in Costa Rica, which are for show only, the working Butterfly Garden cultivates 60 to 80 species of butterflies, three of which are unique to the area, for shipment to similar facilities around the world. The knowledgeable staff provides guided tours with bilingual commentary.
