We depart early in the morning in our comfortable van from Dominical, taking the Costanera Highway along the Pacific Ocean for about 90 minutes to Sierpe. We will stop there to have breakfast (not included).

We will then take a comfortable 90 minute boat ride through the largest area of mangrove swamps in Central America to CañoIsland. The mangroves are inhabited by crocodiles, snakes, four species of monkeys, and a great variety of birds. Once through the SierpeRiver mouth we'll boat past two of the most scenic areas in the country, DrakeBay and the Marenco Biological Reserve. We will hope to see Humpback, Pilot and Killer Whales along the way.

When we get to the park our bilingual naturalist guide will lead you on a 3 hour walking tour of a pristine primary forest. The hike ends at the rangers station where we will provide a delicious picnic lunch surrounded by rich natural atmosphere.
