Pic of the Day: Sunset over Manuel Antonio

Manuel Antonio National Park is among the most popular destinations in Costa Rica, and for good reason.

Visitors to the national park will almost certainly see monkeys and sloths — and potentially snakes, macaws and other wildlife. They’ll enjoy one of the country’s best beaches and lookouts over the ocean and rainforest.

And if you’re lucky, in the evening you’ll see a sunset like this one.
