What to expect

Considered one of the best places for bird watching and photography in the Manuel Antonio and Quepos area due to its location in the foothills of the Los Santos Zone. This rural community is only 40 minutes from Manuel Antonio but we will make several stops along the way to explore pastures, gardens, gallery forests and forest edges. In Esquipulas we will visit a family project with gardens designed for bird watching and a beautiful reserve with trails to explore. In this same place we will have the typical breakfast served in a cozy restaurant surrounded by birds. Some of the target birds are: White-crested Coquette, Turquoise Cotinga, King Vulture, Little Oz Hummingbird, Warbler, Ehuphonias and Tanagers.
