Bird watching · Costa Rica
Over 900 species in one small country. We run half-day walks, full-day expeditions and multi-day birding trips from La Fortuna into Boca Tapada, Arenal and the Caño Negro wetlands — small groups, scope on every stop.
Boca Tapada · Northern lowlands
The San Carlos frontier holds the most reliable Great Green Macaw nesting trees in the country, plus King Vulture, Agami Heron (March–June), Sunbittern and Great Potoo along the río San Carlos.

Birding is good year-round here; what changes is which species are active. This is what we actually see, month by month.
