In San Pedro de Turrubares, in the southwestern part of San José province, Camping Paraíso Turrubares occupies a rural property on the Pacific slope, between the hills of the Central Valley and the coast. The area keeps an agricultural, lightly populated character, with a warm tropical climate year-round.

The campsite offers zones alongside a river, with clean water, showers and sanitary facilities for guests, in a quiet setting away from the crowds. The region sits close to Carara National Park, which protects Costa Rica’s largest nesting population of scarlet macaws, while the central Pacific beaches near Jacó remain within an easy driving range.

Orotina, the nearest town with full services, works as a practical supply point for anyone staying in the area. It’s a simple option for those looking for a riverside camping experience without straying too far from Route 34.
