Tortuguero Pakete & Osa Peninsula Touren

Costa Rica dehnt sich majestätisch über eine Breite von 200 Meilen vom pazifischen Ozean bis hin zur Karibik aus. Das Land an sich weist eine Fläche von 20'000 Quadratmeilen auf. Sobald Sie in Costa Rica angekommen sind, möchten Sie jeden einzelnen Quadratmeter davon sehen. Fügen Sie zu Ihrem Mehrtagespacket einfach eine Zusatz Tour hinzu und Sie können Costa Rica noch ein wenig mehr geniessen. Erleben Sie den Tortuguero Nationalpark und seine Kanaele oder den Corcovado Park in Osa Peninsula, eine der unberuehrtesten Regionen Costa Ricas.

Day 1 : San Jose - Osa Peninsula

Early morning pick up at any San Jose hotel and transfer to the airport for a domestic flight south to Palmar Sur.

Day 2 : Corcovado National Park

Day trip to Corcovado National Park. This National Park has a great range of biological diversity and has attracted the attention of tropical ecologists who wish to study the intricate workings of the rain forest. It is home to more than 400 species of birds and more than a hundred species of amphibians and mammals, including monkeys, scarlet macaws, coatimundis and other wildlife. According to National Geographic, this region of Costa Rica is “the most biologically intense place on earth”.

Day 3 : Caño Island Snorkeling

Your tour starts after a leisurely breakfast, when you’ll meet your guide at the Gear House to select your flippers and mask. It’s then a 40-minute boat ride to the ‘Coral Garden’. At certain times of the year, you may also see pilot or humpback whales, and dolphin along the way. The snorkelling site is located within a marine reserve, and is a good place for spotting a wide variety of fish and marine mammals, including – if you are lucky – manta rays, turtles and small white-tipped sharks.
Our inflatable diving vests can be adjusted to allow you to bob on the surface, fully supported, or dive down below, whichever you prefer. Accompanied by your guide, this is a great tour for beginners and experienced snorkelers alike. We usually snorkel for around an hour. Caño Island was once an important ceremonial site and burial ground for the pre-Colombian Indians. It’s possible they abandoned the area when pirates began arriving – the first, according to legend, being Sir Francis Drake back in 1579. The island is now a National Park.
There are no facilities, and visitor access to the interior is prohibited while important infrastructure work is carried out. However our boat can take you close to the shore, and you are welcome to wade ashore and stroll along the beach.
