What to expect
J8Q4+8Q4
You will be kayaking and walking the jungle trails and beaches with a professional guide visiting a amazing viewpoint and a cave. You'll learn about history, culture, plants and wildlife while searching for a sloth out in the wild. The Caribbean Jungle is home to more than 300 bird species, big blue butterflies, interesting insects and other animals like poison dart frogs, iguanas, snakes, sloths, armadillos, several species of monkeys among others. We believe every animal is a important part of an ecosystem and that they don't belong behind a fence for human show. So the best way to support the sustainability is by ecotourism activities like this one. This tour is in search of wildlife so there's a possibility that we might not see what we are out to find. The sloths are not in cages and move around freely on this beach and sometimes but hardly ever just don't want to be seen. But 99% of the time we do find them and see up to 10 or more on good days.
Playa Punta Uva is a stunning beach on Costa Rica's Caribbean coast, near Puerto Viejo. Known for its clear turquoise waters, soft sands, and lush jungle, it's perfect for relaxation and outdoor activities like snorkeling and kayaking. The beach offers a tranquil escape with a vibrant mix of cultures and rich biodiversity.
The experience can be subject to change due to bad weather or unforseen circumstances. We always endeavour to give you the best possible experience.
