THE PENINSULA DE OSA
Reaches out into the Pacific Ocean from southwestern Costa Rica and is described by National Geographic as "the most biologically intense place on earth". Archaeologists and Ethno-Historians have yet to unravel the mysterious past of this region.
The Aguila de Osa Inn is located on Drake Bay in the Osa Peninsula, adjacent to Corcovado National Park and Caño Island Biological Reserve. The Aguila de Osa Inn offers privacy and seclusion in a setting where adventure tourists will experience the Osa in its entirety.
FOOD AND LODGING EXCITING DINING is an Aguila de Osa Inn trademark. Our distinctive cuisine is created with a uniquely tropical flair. Fresh seafood, pasta, tasty vegetables, and luscious tropical fruit, prepared with simplicity and originality are served in a comfortable, expansive atmosphere.
Our guestrooms feature hardwood floors, ceiling fans and private, tiled bathrooms. The cabins are situated on a bluff overlooking magnificent Drake Bay and the Pacific Coast.
JUNGLE HIKES
WALK INTO A WORLD of immense bio-diversity right on your doorstep. Trails cross orchid draped streams and wind through virgin jungle, home to a vast array of exotic birds and mammals. Howler and White-faced monkeys bound through the canopy. The Scarlet Macaw, Toucan, and Tanager are just three examples of the 300 species of birds indigenous to the region.
Guided tours of Corcovado National Park and Caño Island Biological Reserve allow you to further explore the magnificence of this rainforest frontier to its fullest
CAÑO ISLAND TOUR
Snorkelers will love the accessibility of schooling reef fish right off shore. Star fish, conches, turtles, moray eels, octopuses and parrot fish make up a small part of the kaleidescope of underwater tropical life close enough to touch.
The day is broken up with a picnic lunch on the beach while divers and snorkelers join to share their watery adventures. Well-marked trails
entice some guests to hike to ancient indigenous burial sites on the island, while others prefer to relax in the shade of almond trees. For the truly energetic, there's a volleyball net and ball awaiting any challengers.
Scuba Diving
CAÑO ISLAND and selected OSA PENINSULA coastal sites provide "unequaled parades of pelagic fish" (Skin Diver Magazine): clouds of fish literally block the sun's rays in the clear waters as divers penetrate the fish schools
Brightly colored tropical fish, snapper, tuna, grouper, mackerel, jack, shark, trigger fish, barracuda (typically in schools), manta rays, eels, porcupine fish, sea urchins, octopus, lobster, sponges, sea cucumbers, and other marine species are seen.
There are 15 or more types of stony coral species as well as the attendant coral eaters (starfish, mollusks, and hermit crabs). The terrain varies widely and includes 20' reefs, 50' underwater pinnacles, canyons, walls and caves. Visibility is good to excellent all year round; often marine life can be viewed 70' below the surface. Surface sightings include porpoises, Olive Ridley sea turtles, whale sharks, sea snakes and humpback whales.
Caño Island and the Osa Peninsula coast are a part of a mammoth (Rio Sierpe, Rio Terraba, Caño Island) marine ecosystem. More than one hundred thousand acres of mangrove wetlands and one thousand miles of fresh and salt water rivers, estuaries and tributaries interact with the Pacific ocean through tides which provide for an incredible abundance of marine life. This area of the Pacific is south of the trade winds and therefore characterized by gentle swells and breezes.
