The Arenal Volcano at La Fortuna of San Carlos, lays dormant until July 29 in 1968, when an earthquake shook the area, and 12 hours later Arenal blew.If you have never seen an active Volcano; Arenal Volcano in Costa Rica makes for a spectacular first.
This 1633m Arenal Volcano rises majestically out of the lush pastures and forest on the eastern end of Arenal Lake.
Intermittent explosions draw people by day and night, although night is the best time to observe red-hot molten lava enveloping the top of the cone.
Even when overcast, the rumblings, venting and molten lava glowing through the clouds offers a very special experience.
Also enjoy the Arenal hot springs where you also may view the Arenal Volcano.
