Osa Peninsula

Luxury Corcovado and Osa Peninsula Tours made for you

Lush forests, beautiful beaches and a wealth of wildlife

One of the planet's richest nature reserves

The Osa Peninsula is one of the most remote locations in Costa Rica. But its seclusion has everything to do with its inimitability, making it a very unique and extraordinary experience.

Located in the southwest with the lush primary rainforest of the Corcovado National Park spreading itself over 105,000 acres and the marine life-rich Dulce Gulf, and embracing the littoral to the east, Osa enjoys an exceptional wealth of biodiversity.

National Geographic calls it the “most biologically intense place on Earth” and the Corcovado possesses the greatest variety of tree species on the planet with montane, cloud, prairie, swamp and mangrove vegetation. It is also the place to spot rare mammals such as white-face capuchins, margays, ocelots, tapirs, jaguars and pumas. Scarlet macaws, pelicans and woodpeckers are just some of the birdlife to enjoy and you can watch humpback whales and dolphins cavort in the gulf inlet.

There is a great range of very comfortable hotels to choose from that do their best to blend into and protect their surroundings but also make sure you can take full advantage of them too, assuring you are well looked after and have an equally relaxing stay.

We can help you organise your own tailor-made programme of activities, tours and expeditions around the peninsula with a private English-speaking guide and to suit your preferences and time.

A word from one of our experts

The Corcovado National Park and the Osa Peninsula are the perfect destinations to truly immerse yourself in Costa Rica's wilderness. Trek through the dense rainforests as spider monkeys swing through the branches above, their chatter ringing in your ears. Relax on the stretch of golden sand fringing the peninsula, or head out into the darkness to spot nocturnal creatures. Make your trip during the right time of the year and you'll catch whales playing with their young in the gulf - the fun never stops here.
