"Río Celeste is one of the most famous attractions in all of Costa Rica. It’s a river located in the north of the country that’s known for its incredible turquoise color. The hike near the river leads to a beautiful waterfall and a pool of bright blue water. It’s so blue that a unique color is used to describe it in Spanish: “celeste”, like the blue color of the sky on a sunny day. Legend has it that the reason this river is so blue is because God used it to clean his paintbrush after painting the sky! Unlike many other natural attractions in Costa Rica, Rio Celeste has a clear path that leads you to this stunning waterfall, so it’s very accessible. You’ll be thrilled to have visited this natural wonder and seen this amazing blue water in person!"
