Venture into the wild heart of Corcovado National Park with our Sirena Deep Exploration tour! This two-day, one-night adventure maximizes your time at the renowned Sirena Biological Station, the premier location for wildlife viewing, while requiring minimal hiking effort. A great choice for families with kids, elder naturalists, or just for experts or photographers who are not interested in long hikes.
This choice allows you to explore deeply the Sirena Biological Station, the best spot for wildlife observation.
First day: Departing early in the morning from Drake Bay or Puerto Jiménez, prepare for a breathtaking 1.5-hour boat journey through beautiful coastal ecosystems (pristine waters, stunning coastline views). You arrive directly at the heart of the park, where you'll have the chance to hike between 6 to 10 Km throughout the day and explore the trails around the biological station, learning about wildlife and tropical ecosystems with our local naturalist guides.
Second day: We start early in the morning with a short hike to the Sirena River (depending on the tide), looking for tapirs that move back to their mud pools as the soft morning light creates perfect photographic opportunities, accompanied by the melodious sounds of tropical birds. After breakfast, continue hiking the surrounding area and explore Corcovado’s abundant nature, covering distances between 7 and 9 Km depending on wildlife activity and the group's preferences. Finally, by noon we take the boat ride again towards Drake or PJ.
The shared boat rides to and from Sirena offer an incredible perspective of the Osa Peninsula coastline from the sea, with opportunities to spot dolphins, turtles, and even whales during their migration seasons (July to November and December to January).
The booking price listed applies to a minimum of 2 people. Ask about available dates before submitting your booking request.
