Humpback whales raise their young in Marino Bellena as the waters are shallow and warm and they feel safe. Coincidentally, at low tide, the beach forms a "whale's tail" shape, and it's stunning to see. There is a National Park entrance fee, that I believe was in the $3-6 range for the day. ](https://images.trvl-media.com/place/6047931/b92b644c-08fe-4af9-9f3b-d657516b5156.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=1040&h=580&q=mediumHigh) ![Golfito Bay, Costa Rica](https://images.trvl-media.com/place/601384/327e7ad2-0707-464b-88d1-9cdc09402ccb.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=1040&h=580&q=mediumHigh) ![Pacific coast Costa Rica](https://images.trvl-media.com/place/6148704/8327389b-a11b-4a97-948c-62d3d8e4f813.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=1040&h=580&q=mediumHigh) ### South Pacific Coast Attractions If you're ready to discover the best of South Pacific Coast, join one of the top [tours & day trips](https://www.expedia.com/things-to-do/en/search?rid=6035460&rfrr=ATG.LP.BodyContent&categories=ToursDayTrips) on offer, and have an experienced guide show you some of the most popular sites.
