Corcovado National Park — Sirena Station 2 Days 1 Night from Puerto Jiménez
Departing from Puerto Jiménez, you’ll embark on a scenic 1.5-hour boat ride along the South Pacific coastline to reach Sirena Station, located deep within the heart of Corcovado National Park. Upon arrival, you’ll explore a network of rainforest trails guided by an expert naturalist, observing wildlife behaviors, ecological relationships, and the rich biodiversity that makes this region world-renowned.
Throughout the day, you’ll take well-deserved breaks at the station, where you can relax, enjoy your meals, and recharge before continuing your adventure into the forest. As night falls, you’ll sleep in shared bunk beds inside the station, surrounded by the immersive sounds of the jungle—frogs, insects, and distant howler monkeys.
At sunrise, the rainforest awakens around you: soft morning light filters through the canopy while monkeys and colorful birds begin their morning chorus, offering a breathtaking natural spectacle.
