There are three primary forests in Costa Rica: rainforests, cloud  forests, and dry forests.

Costa Rica’s tropical rainforests are found in the southwest region of the country and in the Atlantic lowlands. Rainforests play a fundamental role in life, as they help Earth’s climate by reducing the greenhouse effect, provide food sources, and many other important resources from nature. One of the most productive and intense ecosystems in the world, Costa Rica’s rainforests are home to a diverse variety of mammals, reptiles, amphibians, insects, fish and birds. The flora is just as astounding. Trees can grow up to 100 feet tall, absorbing about 90% of the rain forest’s photosynthesis.

Costa Rica’s cloud forests are a stunning sight. They cover the higher pitch of volcanoes and mountains all across Costa Rica, captivating visitors with their mysterious fogs and exotic vegetation.

Tropical dry forests in Costa Rica are found along the North Pacific coast. Although they’re not as diverse as the rainforests are because they receive much less rain, Costa Rica’s dry forests evoke an amazing ecosystem with a wide variety of flowers and trees.

The Osa Península’s Tropical Lowland  Rainforest is—according to National Geographic—the most biological intense place on Earth. Find more wildlife that roam free here than any other part of Costa Rica, or the world. It is a perfect destination for families, honeymooners, birdwatchers, photographers and adventurers, while still a peaceful refuge for travelers who are seeking a secluded and relaxing place to stay.

Any time is a good time to visit Costa Rica because each season brings forth different experiences and activities. November through April is the blue season with great fishing and high temperatures, and May through October is the green season with cooler temperatures, whales, sea turtles, and waterfalls.

Our Jungle Night Walks are easy walks convenient for everybody. Along this tour we look for different species of insects, birds, reptiles, amphibians, and mammals, most of which are only found at night (like the famous red-eyed tree frogs and the kinkajous). We may also see diurnal wildlife like sleeping birds or basilisks taking a break.

The climate is hot and humid, so drink plenty of water and carry a water bottle with you, as well as sunblock and mosquito repellent. Good shoes for walking/hiking are important, comfortable clothing (shorts and t-shirts are fine),  a raincoat just in case, phones or camera to capture the  special moments, and a backpack. An important rule when entering/hiking into the rainforest (or any forest o r secluded area): NEVER hike alone, accidents can happen anywhere.
