Osa Peninsula

The Osa Peninsula is one of the most remote parts of Costa Rica. The untouched rainforests are the last bastion of jaguar and tapir, making this region especially desirable for wildlife enthusiasts.

Why the Osa Peninsula?
You’ll find the Osa Peninsula jutting out into the glorious Pacific Ocean in the southern part of Costa Rica, where the land is thick with rainforest. Much of the rainforest falls within the Parque Nacional Corcovado and is the last great tract of virgin tropical rainforest in Pacific Central America. The region is home to half of all species in Costa Rica including giant anteater, Baird’s tapir and big cats including jaguar.

Short walking trails around the ranger stations are sure to yield exciting wildlife sightings, but if you’re fit and determined, it’s well worth heading into the park’s interior. Over a challenging two-day hike, your odds of seeing Costa Rica’s big cats – and impressive birds like the endangered Harpy eagle – are greatly increased. Elsewhere on Osa, you can hike the 17-kilometre Bahia Drake trail, which is accessible only by speed boat through the mangroves.
