He also noted that since the Ca\u00f1o Negro runs along the border of Nicaragua, we had to keep our passports on us at all times as they have random checks on occasion.<\/p>\n<h4 style=\"text-align: justify;\">The Boat Launch<\/h4>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Once we arrived to the river, we were greeted at the restaurant with deliciously fresh cheese empanadas (my fave!), and a choice of juice, iced tea, coffee, or water. &nbsp;We snacked and had a quick bathroom break before embarking on the pontoon boat for our river adventure. &nbsp;At this time they take your lunch order with the options to choose from a chicken or vegetarian Casado, which is a typical Tico style lunch. We had a bit of time to explore the riverside gardens lush with tropical vegetation that I had never before seen outside the tropical floral department of my Lowes back in the states. &nbsp;Before we even got onto the boat, we already encountered 2 Caymans lurking next to the beach. &nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-1139 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.therealdealtours.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/explore-cano-negro-costa-rica-by-pontoon3-1-300x205.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"432\" height=\"295\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.therealdealtours.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/explore-cano-negro-costa-rica-by-pontoon3-1-300x205.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.therealdealtours.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/explore-cano-negro-costa-rica-by-pontoon3-1-1024x701.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.therealdealtours.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/explore-cano-negro-costa-rica-by-pontoon3-1-768x525.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.therealdealtours.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/explore-cano-negro-costa-rica-by-pontoon3-1-150x103.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.therealdealtours.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/explore-cano-negro-costa-rica-by-pontoon3-1-218x150.jpg 218w, https:\/\/www.therealdealtours.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/explore-cano-negro-costa-rica-by-pontoon3-1-600x411.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.therealdealtours.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/explore-cano-negro-costa-rica-by-pontoon3-1-696x476.jpg 696w, https:\/\/www.therealdealtours.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/explore-cano-negro-costa-rica-by-pontoon3-1-1068x731.jpg 1068w, https:\/\/www.therealdealtours.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/explore-cano-negro-costa-rica-by-pontoon3-1-614x420.jpg 614w, https:\/\/www.therealdealtours.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/explore-cano-negro-costa-rica-by-pontoon3-1.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 432px) 100vw, 432px\" \/><\/p>\n<h4 style=\"text-align: justify;\">The Pontoon Safari Float<\/h4>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The Ca\u00f1o Negro boat trip lasted about 2 hours, and all I can say is WOW!!! &nbsp;We saw several Caymans right away, then we were occupied watching the Jesus Lizards and hoping they would walk on water. &nbsp;I had seen them on Nat Geo as a kid and I have always obsessed about seeing one in real life.

style=\"text-align: justify;\">We floated along the Cano Negro sharing binoculars and searching the forest and waterway for a variety of amazing birds, lizards, and finally the monkeys!!! &nbsp;At one time, we were surrounded by Squirrel Monkeys on the right side of the river, White Faced Capuchin Monkeys on the left side, and the sound of howler monkeys in the distance. &nbsp;What an amazing spectacle these huge groups of monkeys all within a short distance. &nbsp;Everywhere you looked you could see monkeys jumping from tree to tree.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The best part happened when the White Faced Capuchin Monkeys decided it was time to come to the water to get a drink. &nbsp;They are actually carnivorous and really quite mean monkeys, but you would never know because they looked so cute swinging around then coming down to the water cupping their hands and using it as a ladle for a drink of water. &nbsp;The best part was that this scared the Jesus Lizards (which yes, these monkeys would eat) right into the water so we had a chance to watch one running across the water. &nbsp;Woo hoo!!<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\"

about everything we saw courtesy of the guide, Pedro. &nbsp;Pedro &nbsp;even helped us take photos of the animals close up by taking the photo &nbsp;through his binoculars\u2026.very cool since I am a terrible photographer with a bad camera. &nbsp;We sped up a bit on the way back, and they even let the kids take turns steering the boat which they enjoyed. &nbsp;The boat is a wide and comfortable covered Pontoon boat with an open bow. &nbsp;Great for everyone and room to run all around the boat checking for wildlife. &nbsp;I wished both my grandparents and my niece were there to share this
