At our next stop we were hoping to be lucky seeing the Humpback Whales, but unfortunately we were a little late and the season had just ended. There were still things to do and new places to see :)
Uvita is well known for having a beach that looks like the tail of a whale at low tide. This picture is taken from the tail. Later, when we were walking back, the high tide was coming and this part was getting covered by the ocean.
Along the beach were some shells I had never seen before, and it was natural art!
At the tip of the tail I found a spot to try some more gymnastics. The people below me thought I was crazy to try something like that!
The next day we decided to visit Playa Ballena. When we got there we were suggested to visit Playa Arco while it still was low tide. We walked the long beach and a short trail through a forest.
When we got out of the forest this beautiful and lonely beach was waiting for us!
There are rocky cliffs surrounding the beach, and also there is a cave to pass through during the low tide.
On our way back the high tide was on it's way, so we had to walk on the rocks to get back.
Since the season for the whales was over we had to find something else to do. A quick search on the web and we found something that looked really cool, Costa Canyoining. I asked my mother if she wanted to go canyoning, and explained that we would rapell and jump down waterfalls! "That sounds like fun" she said, and of course she wanted to join. We started out by jumping the first waterfall :)
My mother was the first to start rapelling the second waterfall. Our guide asked me if I wanted to jump this watefall as well. It looked like a nice challenge, so I said "why not?". Afterwards they told me that I was the only one who had jumped the waterfall except the guides.
It was also possible to do some gymnastics in the pool of this waterfall :)
This was an amazing Christmas gift from my family! Thank you so much!
