1. Marine Park Tour
As the plane gently ascends, you’ll start to feel one with your remarkable surroundings. Your emotions will begin to soar as you find yourself floating in mid air.

This tour offers a smorgasbord for your senses: towering mountains, humid tropical vegetation, and the spectacular sight of the Pacific coast at Ballena National Marine Park, which is a sanctuary for hundreds of plant and animal species. You will see sandy and rocky beaches, estuaries, mangroves, steep cliffs, island, reefs and the Punta Uvita tombolo, all from a true birds-eye view.

Shortly after your journey begins, you will feel as if you had flown into a different world, and a peaceful, relaxing sensation will fill your mind and body as you enjoy the captivating show of nature unfolding beneath you.

2. Marine Park and Mangrove Tour
Ballena National Park opens up like an artist’s palate, where emerald rainforests, golden sands, and deep blue ocean provide the perfect combination of hues and shades for total relaxation.

The flight then heads south over an expansive, untamed tropical setting. The fresh Pacific breeze will float you over the Térraba and Sierpe river mouths, unveiling the most extensive mangrove forest in Costa Rica. You will discover a tangle of navigable mangrove-lined canals that remains nearly uncharted, where dozens of small islands dot the landscape.
This rare ecosystem is the natural habitat for an incredible amount of birds, fish, and other marine life. Only by air could this majestic panorama be admired in all its tropical glory. Come join the adventure!
