Experience the magic of the Costa Rican rainforest on this easy guided walk designed for nature lovers and wildlife enthusiasts. The Slothwatching Walking Tour takes you through lush coastal trails within Marino Ballena National Park, Central America’s first marine park, famous for its natural beauty and biodiversity.
As you explore, your expert bilingual guide will help you spot sloths resting high in the trees, colorful birds, and other native wildlife that inhabit this unique coastal ecosystem. Learn fascinating facts about the park’s 17 coral species, its role in marine conservation, and the delicate balance between ocean and rainforest life.
The highlight of the tour is the visit to the famous Whale’s Tail, a naturally formed sandbar and coral reef shaped like a whale’s tail that becomes visible during low tide. It’s an incredible spot for photos and a perfect place to appreciate the beauty of Uvita’s coastline.
This gentle 3-hour walk is suitable for all ages and fitness levels, making it an ideal activity for families, couples, and solo travelers. Discover the quiet side of Uvita — where the jungle meets the ocean — and enjoy a relaxing morning surrounded by the sights and sounds of tropical wildlife.
