The mangrove ecosystem is an incredibly vital and fascinating part of our planet, playing countless roles and boasting unique adaptations. It serves as the first line of defense for our coasts, acting as a natural barrier that protects both humans and other ecosystems, including their fauna.
You will meet your tour guide at the designated meeting point, located just 10 minutes from downtown Quepos. Before we begin, you’ll receive some instructions and have the chance to use the restroom, as we’ll be on the boat for about two hours.
With the guidance of our captain and tour guide, you’ll explore the incredible wildlife and learn about the natural history of the animals in this unique ecosystem. During the tour, we’ll be on the lookout for monkeys, iguanas, basilisks, birds, bats, snakes, crabs, and many other fascinating creatures.
After two hours of wildlife observation, we’ll return to the meeting point, completing one of the area’s highlight experiences!
A quick note about scheduling:
We offer this tour at three standard times: 8:00 AM, 12:00 PM, and 3:20 PM. However, if you have flexible timing, we highly recommend doing the tour during high tide to explore additional channels and increase the chances of spotting more species.
That said, if you can only join at the standard times, no worries! The tour is just as immersive and full of incredible wildlife encounters.
