Rio Celeste

Rio Celeste is a small, amazingly blue, river in Parque National Volcan Tenorio.  We stayed in the nearby town of San Raphael, no other tourists in sight ... a genuine Cost Rican cattle town.  Pura Vida!

Definitely worth a visit!

At this location where 2 rivers converge, volcanic waters carrying Sulpher in one river mix with waters carrying calcium carbonate from the other.  This results in a totally surreal and amazing natural phenomenon!  Check out the colour spectrum..
