Mangrove Tour 

Discover the wonders of Costa Rica's largest mangrove forest with our 3-hour Mangrove Tour along the stunning Sierpe River. This tour offers an unforgettable opportunity to immerse yourself in nature, spotting incredible wildlife in their natural habitat.

The mangroves are home to an array of fascinating creatures, including howler, squirrel, and capuchin monkeys, sloths, crocodiles, caimans, mangrove boas, red-eyed tree frogs, and river turtles. Bird enthusiasts will marvel at nearly 100 species, including the rare Mangrove Hummingbird, found nowhere else on Earth. Perfect for photography and nature lovers, this tour allows you to get up close to Costa Rica’s unique biodiversity.

Your journey takes place aboard the 2020 Custom 190s Panga, a comfortable vessel powered by a 40 HP Mercury outboard engine with a cruising speed of 20 knots. The boat, which accommodates up to six guests, features a bimini for shade, an icebox for refreshments, and all essential safety equipment, including life jackets, a VHF radio, an anchor, and wheel steering.

Our expert guides — Jose, Angie, or Ariana — are fluent in English and deeply knowledgeable about the river and its ecosystem. They will share fascinating insights about the mangroves, the wildlife, and their behaviors. Captain Pablo Chaves, a specialist in eco-tours, ensures your trip is both safe and enriching. When wildlife is spotted, the captain will expertly position the boat for ideal viewing and photo opportunities.

Tours typically start at 8 AM, with flexible timing options available upon request, including afternoon tours at 2 PM. Children are welcome, and optional drinks can be arranged to enhance your experience.
