Join us for a peaceful 3-hour Bird Watching Boat Tour along the scenic Sierpe River, a bird loverâs paradise in the heart of Costa Ricaâs southern Pacific region. This gentle boat ride offers the perfect opportunity to observe a wide variety of resident and migratory bird species in their natural habitat. As we glide along the calm waters of the Sierpe River and its lush riverbanks, youâll spot herons, egrets, hawks, kingfishers, trogons, tanagers, andâif you’re luckyâthe iconic scarlet macaws and toucans. With over 300 bird species recorded in the area, every tour offers something new.
Our tour departs early in the morning or late in the afternoon, the best times to witness bird activity and enjoy the golden light perfect for photography. A knowledgeable local guide with a sharp eye and trained ears will help you identify species, explain their behaviors, and share insights about the mangrove ecosystem. This tour is suitable for all ages and is conducted in a comfortable covered boat, allowing for close wildlife encounters without disturbing the animals. Whether you’re a seasoned birder or just starting out, this quiet and immersive journey on the Sierpe River is a rewarding experience you won’t want to miss.
