Suitable for nature lovers, adventurers, families and all who want to experience the ultimate zip-lining adventure.

Stand Up Paddle Ocean Lessons

Depending on local conditions your ocean paddling experience will be crafted to you and your groups’ skill level. During the trip you’ll increase your ocean knowledge and experience its dynamic waters enhancing your stand up paddling skills and confidence. *Important to note – this tour depends on ocean conditions, and safety is our primary concern.

Stand Up Paddle Mangrove Tour

This is a stand up paddling adventure that will (peacefully) blow your mind.

Boca Nosara Wildlife & Birding Kayaking Tour

The Rio Nosara and the Rio Montana are the two largest rivers in Nosara, and where they converge you will find a tremendous amount of natural beauty. For nature lovers and those who like to kayak, this is quite simply the best tour in Nosara. Kayak alongside great blue herons, anhingas, roseate spoonbills, and maybe even a few crocodiles. Then weave through mangrove tunnels just as wide as your boat, enjoying the exquisite sounds of the jungle. Cap it off with an ice-cold watermelon juice or a sunset cerveza at the Boca.

Waterfall & Wildlife Adventure Hike

Experience one of Nosara’s hidden gems; this tucked away waterfall destination is a refreshing treat following a 45 minute moderate hike. The hike involves crossing a creek, traversing a cattle farm, and weaving through a primary canopy of tropical dry forest. Stop along the way to interpret the sights, sounds and smells of everything around you before discovering a series of brilliant swimming holes and small waterfalls, each cascading from one to another.
Bask in the cool water and natural beauty of the site until you’re sufficiently refreshed. Depending on the time of year, it’s even possible to hike upriver through the waterfalls. Returning from the falls you’ll be greeted with an organic picnic lunch and refreshments. This tour is documented with photos. All-terrain shoes, swimsuits and hats are suggested.

Horseback Riding

This tour will take you from the river up to the hills with breathtaking views of the ocean, beaches and mangroves, through jungle trails and along the beaches of Nosara and Ostional.

Turtles - Ostional

The Ostional Wildlife Refuge in Costa Rica was created in 1984 to protect one of the world’s most important nesting sites of the Olive Ridley Sea Turtle. It is the site for a rarely seen biological wonder. The week before the new moon, hundreds of sea turtles come to one specific mile of beach to dig their eggs into the black volcanic sand. Turtles nest at Ostional year round but peak time occurs from August through December. The phenomenon of “arribadas” (mass nesting) occurs regularly once or twice a month.

Nosara Refuge for Wildlife

Founded in January of 1999, this refuge has been a place for the injured, displaced and orphaned wildlife from Nosara and the Nicoya Peninsula region of Costa Rica. You can visit the Refuge by advanced reservation (as a health precaution to the animals, the Refuge requires visitors to be in Costa Rica for at least 3 days before visiting). Your visit will include a tour of the Refuge facilities and an opportunity to meet up close many of the current “guests” in residence.
