Visitors Guide to the Whale Tail - aka Parque Nacional Marino Ballena, Bahia . Uvita Costa Rica. This is an extensive and detailed guide and walking tour of Costa Rica's famous Whale Tail beach in Marino Ballena National Park. We will cover how get to the park from The Uvita information Center and we will also walk from the entrance to the end of the whale tail itself. We will see footage from drone, bicycle, car and on foot. There are detailed maps for each of the three entrances we will be profiling. We go over some of the dangers to be aware of, things you can and can not bring into the park and you will learn of something that may make or break your visit to the park. We will answer the questions you may have been wondering about and you are encouraged to ask questions in the comment section in our Costa Rica Story community of subscribers.

My name is Ed and I sold my house, quit my job as a Rich Media Editor with Gracenote back in the USA and moved to Uvita Costa Rica in April of 2021, in the midst of the Covid 19 pandemic. Moving to a new country by yourself can be an intimidating endeavor, but with the right mindset and a little luck, life has been very good for me here. I love the weather here, the nature is absolutely amazing, the beaches and the mountains are fantastic, I even have monkeys in my back yard.

I am learning more each day about life in Costa Rica. I have found and lost love here, made great life long friends both Tico aka Costarican and Gringo aka expat. My mission is to create quality videos about Costa Rica, the people that live here, the beauty of it all and guides to spotlight some of the wonderful things here from tourist attractions to local businesses.
You will find episodes here about making the adjustment to moving to Costa Rica, learning Spanish, going to farmer’s market, driving in Costa Rica, guides to the beaches including Parque Nacional Marino Ballena aka the whale tail, guides to tourist destinations, how to spot monkeys, making a border run to Panama, using an ATM in Costa Rica, Costa Rican money vs USD and Euro, drone video, buying a car and having car repairs done, we go on some road trips and just the day to day life in Costa Rica.

Costa Rica Story does an informal livestream on Thursdays, be sure to check that out.

I know many viewers of this channel are also planning on making the move to Costa Rica and have questions about what it takes to survive financially here, residency, health Insurance etc. These are things I am still working on myself, and for obvious reasons and some perhaps not so obvious reasons I won't be talking much about that part of my life at the moment. For these specific topics and more I would refer you to my friend Sarah Elena, who helped me a great deal when I made my move.
