-
With over 140 mammal species and 370 bird species, Corcovado is famous for its rich tropical wildlife
Famous for its impressive preserved rainforests, the Corcovado National Park is the crown jewel of Costa Rica. This little slice of paradise opened in 1975 is located on a remote Osa Peninsula—an area of dense lowland rainforest, premontane mountain rainforest and mangroves. Over three days you’ll discover a large population of endangered animals that inhabit the green forests, golden beaches, and crystalline streams that flow into the Golfo Dulce, one of the world’s only tropical fjords. The most common animals to be seen include monkeys, sloths, peccaries, tapirs, and a variety of birds such as toucans, fiery-billed aracaris, and scarlet macaws. Your main destination will be Sirena, a remote outpost surrounded by virgin rainforest—arguably the best place for wildlife watching in Costa Rica. Hiking trails radiate out from the ranger station, twisting through dramatic virgin rainforest between the Río Claro and Río Sirena. Explore the last humid tropical forest refuge of the Pacific Coast with a naturalist guide who will keep you safe and point out fascinating sights you might otherwise miss.
