Rancho Humo Wetlands

Rancho Humo Guanacaste Costa Rica one day tour: Wetlands Restoration Project

A sophisticated canal system maintains water at an ideal level to preserve and develop the ecosystem.

Wetlands are areas where water is the main element controlling the environment and the flora and fauna connected to it. The Rancho Humo plains are naturally flooded each rainy season, to then partially dry out during the summer. Wetlands are rich in fish, crustaceans and other species, which are part of the food chain, causing constant life movement.

Unfortunately, most wetlands have disappeared from the country due to human activity. Rancho Humo has worked diligently to restore the natural balance of the site.
