| Situated close to the Costa Rican border with Nicaragua, the tiny town of Barra del Colorado sits protected amidst the swampy area of the Refugio Barra del Colorado in Limon province. A wild and mysterious area, the Barra del Colorado Wildlife Refuge is a favorite among eco-tourists and adventurers because there is plenty to see and much to do here, such as Sportfishing, bird watch, canoe and discover the unique wildlife of this region.
Lying near the mouth of the Rio Colorado, this small town is divided by the river into two parts the Barra del Norte and the Barra del Sur. With no roads leading to town, the only way to get to here is by air or by boat. While the airport in Barra del Colorado sits in Barra del Sur to the south, most of the people who live here, live in the northern part of town in Barra del Norte. Most of the hotels, lodges and accommodations are also found here.
The area surrounding Barra del Colorado is quite swampy making walking here extremely difficult. The best way to see town and the refuge itself is by boat. There is also a small ranger station of the park near town. However, there are no facilities here.
From Barra del Colorado, you can also head on into Nicaragua by boat. If you plan on taking a boat ride near the Nicaraguan border, be sure to carry your passport, as you are likely to be stopped and checked by police from time to time.
