Travel Designer Review:
After breakfast, you will take an excursion to Corcovado National Park, located on the Osa Peninsula. This is a wonderful opportunity to see primary and secondary forest of this part of Costa Rica, as well as a wide variety of flora and fauna.
The boat ride to the ranger station takes approximately 30 minutes, but depends on weather and sea conditions.During the boat tour your guide will search the ocean for whales and dolphins or other marine life.
When you arrive to the park you will notice that the first part of the path is a fairly steep slope through the secondary forest. And large tree trunk slabs have been strategically placed to make walking on the terrain easier (a real adventure).
Just before reaching the plateau there is a breathtaking viewpoint of the park and the Pacific Ocean.
While you enjoy a light lunch at the viewpoint and a short rest, you will have the opportunity to take magnificent photographs. Sometimes it is possible to catch whales and/or dolphins in the horizon.
Casa Corcovado has a prime location on the edge of Corcovado National Park, offering luxury accommodation, first-class service, exciting activities and the opportunity to unwind. If you are looking for an authentic, remote and unforgettable vacation experience in Costa Rica, you'll find it at Casa Corcovado Jungle Lodge. Set above a palm-fringed beach, in tropical gardens surrounded by 170 acres of pristine rainforest, this much-loved destination is the ultimate combination of luxurious comfort and adventure.
