1. Osa Peninsula is one of the most worthwhile places to
visit in Costa Rica. The small stretch of remote rugged
jungle in the southwestern corner of the country,
bounded by the deep blue Pacific Ocean to the west and
the placid Golfo Dulce to the east, is renowned by
scientists, explorers and nature lovers as an astounding
paradise.

2. Several private trails on the preserve connect with trails in the national park.
Since access to the park is through private properties accessible by boat only,
you can be guaranteed little to no encounters with other people.

4. At the very bottom of Costa Rica, the placid blue waters of the Golfo Dulce
shine like a mirror most days, reflecting occasional clouds and the immense
cerulean sky. Its calm surface is broken by the odd small, local boat cruising
along, but the most action is caused by dolphins frolicking or fishing, sea
turtles swimming, fish jumping out of the water, and marine birds diving for
those fish.

waters with the dramatic rainforest canopy in the background. Keep your
eyes open for dolphins and other marine life swimming by.
