The Good, the Bad, and the Silly
Parque Nacional Manuel Antonio的点评
点评：Overall I'll say the experience was just average--it's not a must-see in Costa Rica given the other great reserves they have and the hassle one has to go through. But it is the easiest to get to from San José if you are limited on time.
First, the good. It's really two attractions in one: a nature reserve and beaches. There are a lot of animals in the park, and we saw both types of sloth, snakes, 2 of the three kinds of monkeys in CR, and even a deer. All of this without a guide. I don't think you need one really, although having a good pair of binoculars really helps. There are 3 beaches we went to as well, 2 of which were really nice and enjoyable for a swim. The other was a bit rocky and the waters choppier. They do have some rather poor (and highly crowded) changing rooms, but I'd recommend wearing your swimsuit.
The really bad part are the crowds. There isn't a good way to avoid them, although you can go early when the park opens and it'll be better. A lot of locals especially seem to come and just go to the beaches (although to do this they pass through the main trails of the reserve).
And finally the silly. The park has very strict regulations that one cannot bring PLASTIC bottles inside. They will, however, let you bring glass or metal water bottles! And I seem to recall they sell water in plastic bottles in the cafeteria. Why? Either ban plastic full-stop, or ban all outside water bottles. And they are strict, too: they examine every bag on entry. This is a ridiculous and unnecessary hassle and creates a mess at entry as people are stopped and argue with the guards. If you bring a glass/metal bottle, they do have a semi-hidden sink in the cafeteria where you can refill it.

翻译：总的来说，我觉得这次体验很一般——考虑到哥斯达黎加还有其他很棒的保护区，而且要经历不少麻烦，这里算不上是必游之地。但如果时间有限，从圣何塞出发前往这里是最方便的。
首先，优点。这里实际上是两个景点合二为一：自然保护区和海滩。公园里有很多动物，我们看到了两种树懒、蛇、哥斯达黎加三种猴子中的两种，甚至还有一只鹿。所有这些都没有导游。我觉得你其实不需要导游，不过带一副好的双筒望远镜确实很有帮助。我们还去了三个海滩，其中两个非常漂亮，很适合游泳。另一个有点岩石，水面波涛汹涌。那里的更衣室确实比较简陋（而且非常拥挤），但我建议你穿着泳衣。
真正糟糕的是人太多了。没什么好办法可以避开它们，不过公园开放的时候早点去会好一些。很多当地人似乎都喜欢来，就为了去海滩（虽然他们会穿过保护区的主要步道）。
最后说点傻话。公园有非常严格的规定，禁止携带塑料瓶入园。不过，他们允许携带玻璃或金属水瓶！我记得他们在自助餐厅里卖塑料瓶装的水。为什么？要么完全禁止塑料瓶，要么禁止所有外面的水瓶。而且他们也很严格：他们会检查每个入口的袋子。这既荒谬又不必要的麻烦，而且入口处会造成混乱，因为人们会被拦下来并与警卫争吵。如果你带了玻璃/金属瓶，自助餐厅里有一个半隐藏的水槽，你可以在那里重新装满。
