Day 1:
Early in the morning transfer to the airport to take flight to Palmar Sur. Once in Palmar be transported to the Sierpe
River Dock where you will board at Casa Corcovado's Dock the boat that will take you to the lodge.
Travel down the river and then along the coast until you reach the beautiful Casa Corcovado located right next to Corcovado National Park. Lunch will be awaiting.
Free afternoon to enjoy all the amenities and perhaps take a nice hike around or admire the magestic ocean views from Casa Corcovado. Dinner at the lodge
Day 2:
After a delicious breakfast your adventure begins. Starting out from the lodge with your naturalist guide you journey into
Corcovado National Park. The cool morning hours offer a good opportunity to spot wildlife and to observe some of the incredible
variety of birds that abound in the park.
The animal life in this section of the National Park is quite vibrant, with frequent sighting of monkeys, coatimundis, squirrels,
spiders, macaws, bats, leaf cutting ants, and other animal species. As well, much will be mentioned about the plant and tree species,
which is lush, and teeming with life.
Along the trail your guide will have a chance to tell you some of the fascinating stories about life in the rainforest and
point many things out to you. Later, coming down through the forest you will find a river and then discover an incredible
waterfall. Now is your chance to cool off in one of the shaded pools of the rushing river. Afterwards, you wind your way
down the river until reaching the Park Station at San Pedrillo. The San Pedrillo ranger station is the most northern of
the four stations. Situated just off shore is Picaros Island, which serves as a refuge for several species of marine
birds including the Brown Boobie, Blue Heron and Brown Pelican. At the Station under shade trees on the beach you will
enjoy a sumptuous picnic with fresh fruit and ice-cold drinks. After lunch there will be time to explore the beach or to
just relax. In the afternoon it’s a short distance along the coastal trail to return to the lodge. Join us later for a
frosty margarita and to watch the sunset. As you watch the sun melt in to the sea you can reflect upon the wonders of
the most intricate and intense place on earth, the rainforest of the Osa Península. Dinner at the lodge.
Day 3:
The Tour starts after breakfast when your guide will help you select snorkeling gear. For those who want to explore the coral reefs
around the Island it’s a great opportunity to see a fantastic number of fish, rays and sometimes turtles. This is one of the best
dive spots in Costa Rica. On most days there will be a chance to snorkel at the “Coral Garden”, which is an excellent spot for
beginners or more experienced guests. Inflatable diving vests are used so that everyone can feel safe and select the amount of
floatation they need. After the immersion in these pristine waters it’s time to check-in at the Park Station on the island and check out the beach.
There is a beautiful beach sheltered by coconut palms, which has picnic tables where your guide will spread out a tablecloth and lay
out quite a spread for lunch. There will be time to hike up to the burial grounds in the interior of the island or to contemplate awhile
at the “viewpoint”. There will also be plenty of time to take a swim, beach-comb or to try your luck at snorkeling in the cove in front
of the Park Station. Around mid-afternoon we’ll pack-up and head back to the lodge where you’ll have a chance to rest up before drinks
and dinner. I’m sure you will agree with us that the true riches to be found on this mysterious tropical isle are in its’ crystalline
waters and on its’ palm shaded beaches. Rest of the afternoon free. Dinner at the lodge.
Day 4:
Breakfast and right after departure by boat back to Sierpe. Transportation from Sierpe to Palmar to take flight back to
