Step into the coastal rainforest of Marino Ballena National Park — where tropical flora and wildlife meet the sound of the sea.
This guided walk through Marino Ballena National Park reveals the wild, living edge of the rainforest — where monkeys rustle overhead, scarlet macaws streak across the sky, and raccoons sneak through coastal undergrowth.
Unlike a boat tour, this is a slower, grounded experience. You’ll follow jungle trails, observe insects, birds, and small mammals, and learn how this unique forest thrives beside the ocean.
It’s a peaceful, eye-opening way to connect with Costa Rica’s coastal biodiversity — just a short walk from Uvita’s shores.
Hikes are walked at a casual pace to allow time for observation and questions.
Our groups are limited to twelve people + the guide, to ensure a personal and immersive experience.
If you’d rather have a private experience, you can request a private tour for an additional cost. Perfect for couples, families, or those who want a slower pace or more flexibility.
