Costa Rica Photography – La Fortuna & Arenal

On the way to La Fortuna, we traveled through rolling hills in an array of stunning greens, from the deepest emeralds to the brightest lime. The clouds shift in the sky like a painter’s brush, never staying still for long and providing constantly changing light. We can find wildlife in many spots, from toucans to sloths. The opportunity to create art abounds. The ever-changing clouds make stunning sunsets and creative skies for the perfect creation of photography.

We arrived near the Arenal Volcano, and the vibrant colors of flora and fauna contrasted with the towering volcano in the distance. Every cloud is a different shade of blue and grey. Fog creeps in at dawn and dusk to blanket everything in an ethereal veil.

We arrived at Arenal Volcano and were in awe of the stunning display of color that surrounded it. As the colossal peak towered over us, clouds shifted through an array of blues and grays while the sun crept in and out of the gorgeous cloud formations giving a dreamlike feel to the area.

La Fortuna has several magnificent landscapes, from rivers to mountains, lakes to waterfalls. But Arenal Volcano takes center stage and serves as its most iconic feature. This stratovolcano stands tall at 1633 meters above sea level, with its near-perfect cone shape easily visible for miles in every direction.

Much more than just a tourist attraction, Arenal Volcano has been integral to developing La Fortuna as we know it today. Visitors can journey here to experience all the natural wonders this area offers — from hot springs, caves, canyons, trails and forests to its friendly locals — and they can be blessed with breathtaking views of the volcano.

We spent the day at Arenal 1968. This magnificent park has a restaurant that creates a magical experience. The sky glowed a deep dark blue, illuminated by the dancing white clouds about the Arenal Volcano. We stepped inside the restaurant and were overcome by a wave of delicious aromas, melding together in perfect harmony. The atmosphere was alive with delight, as the overall experience of dining in nature seemed to transcend the psyche into sheer euphoria. We savored every moment of the dining experience, overwhelmed by awe at the magnificence of Mother Nature’s dramatic creation just in the distance.
