Costa Rica Tours with Bahia Aventuras
Bahia Aventuras boat and nature tour operator is located in Uvita – Bahia Ballena at the footsteps to the Marino Ballena National Park, the heart of Costa Ballena. Stretching from Dominical, Uvita, Bahia Ballena and Ojochal, Costa Ballena encompasses a vast stretch of a gorgeously rugged shoreline and a number of beautiful beaches. This southern Pacific region of Costa Rica, situated near the Osa Peninsula features unspoiled beauty. Celebrated for its incredible biodiversity, the Uvita area is a hot spot for eco-tourism, nature tours, adventure tours, boat tours, conservationists and eco-adventurers alike. The beautiful coastline includes the beaches of Dominical, Dominicalito, Playa Hermosa, Playa Uvita, Playa Arco, Playa Ballena, Playa Pinuelas, Playa Ventanas and Tortuga.
Boat Tours
Located just minutes from Uvita, the Marino Ballena National Park is home to the famous humpback whales that visit us from mid July and October, and again in December through March, as they migrate to and from feeding and mating grounds in the north and south hemispheres. Bahia Aventuras marine tours are powerful experiences that connect you with nature, and include whale watching and dolphin encounters, snorkeling tours, surf lessons, kayaking, sport fishing, and scuba diving. During our tours visitors may have the opportunity to spot humpback whales, colorful fish, sea turtles, manta rays, dolphins, coral reef, and other abundant ocean life in Cost Rica’s warm tropical waters.
Nature Tours
Costa Rica’s abundant nature and the ability for visitors to directly experience its natural environment is what makes Costa Rica such a special place to explore. At Bahia Aventuras nearly every activity that we offer in the Uvita and Osa Peninsula incorporates a nature element. A visit to Uvita is hardly complete without taking the Bahia Aventuras Corcovado National Park full day tour or the relaxing bird watching tour in the Terraba Sierpe Mangroves. The Corcovado National Park known for holding 5% of the biodiversity on this side of the planet is part of our Corcovado Tour that cannot be missed. The Park is host to tropical primary rainforest, where you can hike trails, howl with the howler monkeys, relax with a sloth, sing with hundreds of birds or investigate thousands of insects.
Adventure Tours
One thing that makes Uvita, Costa Rica such a wonderful place to visit is that for such a small village it offers an extraordinary range of outdoor adventures. There are many treasures to discover and many fun ways to explore them. Visitors of all ages can enjoy safe, fun, professional and thrilling adventure tours; surf lessons, ocean kayaking, cave exploration, horseback riding, rappelling down waterfalls, or perhaps flying across the jungle on a canopy line. Uvita and the Osa Peninsula is an adventure tour paradise.
