Cerro Sector — Tortuguero Hill hike.
Required for the Cerro Tortuguero hike (different sector, separate ticket).
- Adults & children (all ages)
- $2 USD
- + 13% tax ($2.26)
How the pass works.
- The pass is good for one day.
- If you're staying 3+ nights, you'll need a new ticket for each additional park-access day.
- Each sector (Canal vs Cerro) requires its own ticket.
Why it matters.
The fee funds the park's management, conservation work, trail maintenance, and the certified-guide system that protects the green sea turtles during nesting season. It's one of the most direct ways your visit supports the ecosystem you came to see.
