What you'll do

  1. Immerse yourself in one of the most intimate and peaceful wildlife experiences in Costa Rica! Our Private Canoe Safari in the stunning mangroves of Parque Nacional Marino Las Baulas offers an unparalleled connection with nature. Unlike motorized boats, our canoes are completely silent, allowing you to paddle at your own pace while observing wildlife without disturbance. For three unforgettable hours, you will navigate through the tranquil canals of this biodiverse ecosystem, where migratory birds from the north, colorful resident species, iguanas, coatis, raccoons, and even howler monkeys await. The mangrove teems with life, and your expert naturalist and birding guide will help you spot and understand the incredible wildlife around you. Halfway through the journey, we’ll step out of the canoe for a short hike in search of the famous howler monkeys, before continuing our paddle through this magical environment.
