Southern Costa Rica & Osa
2-3 WEEKS
Hands down the best itinerary for adventurers, this is the wilder side of Costa Rica. Either
head down the Pacific coast or fly into
Puerto Jiménez
, gateway to Osa. Here, you can
spend a day or so kayaking the mangroves and soaking up the charm.
The undisputed highlight of the Osa is
Parque Nacional Corcovado
, the crown jewel
of the country's national parks. Spend a few days exploring jungle and beach trails with a
local guide, whose expert eyes will spot tapirs and rare birds; trekkers willing to get down
and dirty can tackle a through-hike of the park.
