Costa Rica, Osa  — 2 years ago

One of the most beautiful places on earth is the Osa!

Here is what I reccomend for the Osa:

Stay at Lapa Rios – Open air bungalos set in idyllic foilage, plams and flowers teeming with Tucans, Aracari, Parrots, Butterflies, Hummingbirds, and monkeys…and one of the most beautiful views in the world!

Take a day tour to “swim with the dolphins” in the Golfo Dulce. Do a little snorkeling and then tour around one of the most pristine, beautiful Sounds in the world. 90% sure dolphins will come swim around the boat and you can even jump in the water with them.

Stay a night or two at the end of the road at Corcavado Tent Camp. Right on the beach and only a few mintues walk from one of the most densely populated jungles in the world. Take a tour of the Corcavado with a guide and do some swimming / boogie boarding in the ocean. Great food here in the middle of nowhere! Down-side: there isn’t any hot water at the showers and the bathrooms are seperate from the tent accomodations, but its worth it to be on the edge of nowhere for a few nights, and a cold shower feels good with all the heat and humidity there.

Well, this time it’s OSA for me.

Looking for big cats, monkeys and fantastically painted birds!
