Must visit place in Costa Rica for the more outdoorsy nature lovers
I had the opportunity to spend three days and two nights at this beautiful national park, and it was an amazing experience.
With the assistance of a private guide named Oscar Cordero, I was able to see a wide variety of animals during my visit.
Oscar's knowledge and expertise greatly enhanced my time in the park. I highly recommend him for anyone looking for a knowledgeable guide to enhance their national park experience.

Amazing. We have seen a lot of animals...and our guide Henry was so attentive and helped us to make the best pictures.
Nature, jungle, animals, birds.
We have visited San Pedrilo, it was good experience and it is worth going there.
We used one of Uvita travel office, it took us 7 hours including lunch, price +150$/person.

One of the most remote and awe inspiring places I’ve ever been to! Highly recommended as this is arguably the most biodiverse regions in the entire world. Boasting many species that only live here! So happy that the Costa Rica 🇨🇷 government has protected most of the Osa Peninsula with this incredible national park! Pura Vida
Unbelievable amount of wildlife over the course of a short hike! The park is unlike anywhere I've been before, and totally worth it to hire a guide. The sirena ranger station area was particularly great.
We took a two hour boat ride from Puerto Jimenez to Sirena. It's good to get to the dock early and get a seat in the back. The seats are fairly comfortable and padded but if you get back to the boat late and get stuck on a bench, it's not too great. We saw dolphins and tortoises on the way.
We went with Ficus tours and had an excellent guide. If you do the boat, wear water shoes to jump off the boat. It's fine to hike around in water shoes but I put on the approach shoes I had brought with me. There are taps to rinse off your feet. The bathrooms are very nice.
We did about 5 hours of hiking around back and forth between beach and jungle and saw monkeys, sloths, toucans, a tyra, a tapir and two crocs. Everyone sort of ends up on the same trail but it didn't feel too crowded most of the time. I took lots of bug spray as directed but amazingly there were zero bugs.

Wonderful place with an amazing fauna and flora. Certain location can be entered through sea/on a boat only and you need to rent a guide to enter. They say that reservations are needed in advance, especially in high seasons.
We loved the place and see many or birds, monkeys, crocodiles, insect and tapirs in aditiojbto beautiful flora.
