Workation in La Fortuna: the essentials

On clear days the cone of Arenal dominates the view from much of town, though cloud hides it a lot of the time. La Fortuna, a district in Costa Rica's northern lowlands, took off as a destination after the volcano's eruption in 1968 and now lives from hot springs, waterfalls, Lake Arenal and a long menu of guided tours. It is a practical tourist town more than a pretty one, with shuttles to San José and both coasts. Rentals outside the centre usually require a car, and rain is frequent, especially from May to November. The small Arenal airstrip is about 7 km away.
