Definitely, a boat trip along the San Juan River, which forms the border to Nicaragua, shows the contrast between the two countries, with thick forest to the Nicaraguan side and much farmland on the Costa Rican side. However, there is plenty of rainforest species similar in range to those at Tortuguero. The reserve is mostly comprised of the San Juan River delta which drains in Nicaragua Lake. The Colorado River is the main distributary on the Costa Rican side and it is at the mouth of this river that people finds the village of Barra del Colorado, divided into Barra Norte on the river\u2019s north side and Barra Sur to the south. The airstrip is at Barra Sur.<\/p>\n<p>The 2000 or so inhabitants of the river delta are a mixture of Afro-Caribbean, Costa Rican Indians, Costa Ricans and some Nicaraguans who fled across the border during that country\u2019s civil war. Barra\u2019s closeness to the instability in Nicaragua has held up tourist development, but this is likely to change in the not too distance future.<\/p>\n<p>With an average temperature of 26C (79F) and an annual rainfall of 4000mm (160in), the refuge has a similar climate and natural vegetation to Tortuguero. The wildlife is equally good, particularly as there are fewer disturbances, but the reserve is less accessible and there are few trails, so that most viewing is by boat. People are certain to see mammals such as Three-toed Sloths and both Spider and Howler Monkeys, while reptiles include caymans, crocodiles and the omnipresent iguana. There is a wide range of forest and water birds, such as the famous toucans, Green Macaws, parrots, trogons and jacanas, as a whole selection of the heron family. This is also the best location in Costa Rica to see the endangered <img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"1144\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/costaricainfolink.com\/en\/barra-del-colorado-national-wildlife-refuge-costa-rica\/barra-colorado-refugio-silvestre-costa-rica-pesca\/#main\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/costaricainfolink.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/04\/barra-colorado-refugio-silvestre-costa-rica-pesca.jpg?fit=277%2C200&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"277,200\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;Mc Cann I C T =2&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"Sport Fishing at Barra del Colorado National Wildlife Refuge in Costa Rica\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/costaricainfolink.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/04\/barra-colorado-refugio-silvestre-costa-rica-pesca.jpg?fit=277%2C200&amp;ssl=1\" class=\"alignleft wp-image-1144\" title=\"Sport Fishing at Barra del Colorado National Wildlife Refuge in  Costa Rica\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.costaricainfolink.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/04\/barra-colorado-refugio-silvestre-costa-rica-pesca.jpg?resize=277%2C200&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" width=\"277\" height=\"200\" \/>Manatee pasting under the water.<\/p>\n<p>Most of the people, however, come to Barra del Colorado for the sport fishing, as it is in fact one of the most important areas in Costa Rica dedicated to this activity. The best season for tarpon fishing is from February to late May, while snook are trapped in droves from September to October, through there is good fishing to be had at any time of the year. Other fishes available in that zone include the spectacular rainbow bass, barracudas and the amazing Gaspar fish, the one that is known as a living fossil thanks to its large mouth with sharp teeth which makes it look like a crocodile. Although, there is deep-sea fishing offshore for both marlin and sailfish. Most lodges operate a \u2018catch and release\u2019 policy.<\/p>\n<p>The refuge has a ranger station with general information, drinking water, restrooms, a research center and higher education on the Humid Tropics, showroom, public telephone, a river port, airport and bus terminal. Furthermore, in the village you can find food and lodging services. Other nearby parks include Tortuguero National Park, Dr. Archie Carr National Wildlife Refuge and the Corredor Fronterizo Costa Rica \u2013 Nicaragua National Wildlife Refuge.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Getting to Barra del Colorado National Wildlife Refuge:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>From San Jos\u00e9, take the Guapiles highway toward the city of Limon.
