Osa Peninsula - Golfo Dulce Region in Costa Rica

A few of the most popular wildlife encountered include all 4 species of monkeys in Costa Rica, the Scarlet Macaw, tayras, peccaries, frogs, butterflies, anteaters, snakes, lizards, wild cats, dolphins, whales, whale sharks and tropical fish.

    The beach trails that line Corcovado National Park and the Osa Peninsula are home to a range of amphibious, sea-faring creatures and crustaceans, from hermit crabs to exotic underwater life, including eels, sea turtles, starfish, and other tropical fish. Keep an eye out for dolphins! And, don't miss the Northern and Southern humpback whales which can be seen breaching in the Golfo Dulce between January - February and July - August.
