Discover Costa Rica's wildest national park in a day
Corcovado Nationalpark, Costa Rica
With a guide to tapirs, monkeys and macaws: Corcovado combines boat tours and rainforest hikes in a single day.
What you can experience here
Corcovado Nationalpark is considered the wildest heart of Costa Rica. If you are looking for unspoilt nature and encounters with rare animals, a day trip from Puerto Jimenez offers you exactly this depth. The Sirena Ranger Station in the park is a hotspot for biodiversity and sets the standard for intense nature experiences.
Early in the morning you board the boat in Puerto Jimenez and travel along the coast past still-sleepy rainforest landscapes. On the way you can already spot dolphins, whales or bird species from the water. After about two hours you reach the remote Sirena Ranger Station – you disembark directly into shallow water. Together with a licensed guide you hike along narrow paths through the rainforest and look out for Baird's tapirs, several monkey species, Nasua, tamanduas, colourful scarlet macaws and sloths. There is a simple lunch break and toilets at the ranger station before the boat takes you back to Puerto Jimenez in the early afternoon.
