Rest. Tucanes
About
Rest. Tucanes, a local business on Costa Rica, sits 13 km northeast of the centre of La Fortuna de San Carlos in Nuevo Arenal, within the Provincia de Alajuela. The venue occupies a rural stretch of the Arenal region, placing it away from the busiest tourist strips and closer to the lake and volcano corridor. Its position makes it a natural stop for travellers moving between La Fortuna and the surrounding highlands.
As a restaurant, Rest. Tucanes draws diners looking for a meal in the Nuevo Arenal area, and its 4.2 out of 5 average across 127 reviews reflects a steady local following. The review total is modest compared with the largest venues on the island, suggesting a business that serves its immediate community as much as passing visitors. Nearby places such as La Fortuna and Monteverde sit within the broader region, while San José, Tamarindo, Santa Teresa, Manuel Antonio, Jacó and Puerto Viejo lie further afield. The restaurant's location along the road to Nuevo Arenal makes it accessible from the main resort towns around Arenal.
Five photographs accompany this listing, showing the restaurant and its setting. The address at Noreste de Centro de la Fortuna de San Carlos 13 Km anchors the venue in the Provincia de Alajuela, in the country's northern interior.
Costa Rica's tropical climate brings a dry season that generally runs from December to April, which shapes when most visitors plan their trips. Central American island cooking leans on fresh seafood and tropical fruit, and Spanish is the main language spoken, so a few basic phrases help when ordering. Flights and ferries from the mainland connect the islands, and once on Costa Rica, the restaurant is reachable by road from the main towns.
