Carara National Park was created in April 27, 1978, and measures at the present 5.242 ha (about 12.952 acres). It was part of huge Hacienda El Coyolar, one of the biggest ever in Costa Rica, where the last significant stand of primary forest of its kind has been preserved. Carara National Park is a transitional zone from the dry North Coast of Costa Rica, to the very humid coast of the South east.

In Carara we distinguish three life zones: the tropical moist forest transition to pre-moist, the tropical very moist forest transition to moist and the very moist pre-montane forest.

Among the most outstanding fauna can be found the peccary, ocelot, white-faced monkeys, and macaws. Some of the animal species cited before are in danger of extinction or have reduced populations.

This Park counts with numerous remnants of pre-Columbian indigenous occupations, that to this date are not open to the public.
