Glass Frogs Osa Peninsula
The La Tarde Ecotouristic Project, located in the northern mountains of Corcovado, is a rural tourism initiative that borders the national park and an excellent place for watching birds, reptiles, and amphibians. Here you will spend the first night, in a simple and beautiful cabin. With a stunning view of the forest, the accommodations include a towel, soap, sheets, and shared bathrooms.
The Sirena Biological Station is located 800 mts from the beach. It has two roofed wooden platforms with 18 bunk beds each. Space between the beds is less than one meter apart, resulting in little privacy. The beds are furnished with sheets, a pillow, and mosquito net.
There are nice and clean bathrooms and showers (no hot water available), plus a souvenir shop where you can buy cold drinks, coffee, and snacks.
At the open-air dinning room, you will enjoy a typical Costa Rican meal, big enough to recover all the energy after lots of hiking.
There are lockers where you can store personal belongings for $4 per day. You may also rent towels for $5.
The water supply for the stations is taken from a well, but it’s not treated. All officers and guides consume this water, which is potable. At Sirena station they offer bottled water at a price of $5 for two liters, especially for times when heavy rain makes tap water come out dirty. If possible, we recommend carrying a water filter or purification tablets for use on the long walks.
It’s optional; Osa Wild only provides foam mattress, sheets and mosquito nets.
No, it’s not necessary, Sirena station provides mattresses.
No, it’s not allowed to cook or heat water at the station. Sirena has a restaurant we you can buy meals and even pay with cash or credit card.
For the walks we recommend: lasting fruit (apples, oranges, tangerines, etc), tortillas, bread, mashed beans, tuna, lasting vegetables (carrot, cucumber, onion, avocado, etc), mixed seeds, energy bars.
For families with children we recommend mainly the day tours or tours to Sirena but using some means of transportation like the boat or plane. We have guides who have worked with children on several occasions and it is possible with good planning.
We don’t recommend this path in the rainy season because conditions can become very dangerous. The river level rises, so the transportation does not reach the station and you must walk an extra 6 Km to reach the park’s entrance. On top of that, the trail gets very muddy and many trees fall on the trail, making it difficult to keep going. If you really want, you can do it, but with all the mentioned difficulties and more.
