You keep referring to the coast province being a big tourist area. However, the Coast province covers a huge huge area, most of which is never seen by tourists.
Kora National Park happens to be in the North Western most part of the province, hundreds of miles away from the coast and its ritzy tourist hotels.
It's also one of the least visited parks in the country.
