Puerto Jiménez: Full-Day Tour to Sirena Station – Corcovado National Park
Our tour begins early in the morning from our Corcovado Wild Tours office in Puerto Jiménez at 5:15 a.m. We then walk to the public pier, where we board the boat that will take us into the heart of Corcovado National Park.
The journey begins with a crossing of the tranquil Golfo Dulce for approximately 30 minutes, followed by about 45 minutes on the Pacific Ocean until we reach Sirena Station, one of the most biodiverse sites on the planet. Arrival is scheduled for around 7:20 AM.
At 7:30 a.m., we will check in with the park rangers and begin a guided hike along the Sirena trails. The tour is conducted in small groups of up to 6 people per guide, allowing for a more personalized experience and better opportunities to observe wildlife.
During the tour, which lasts until approximately 11:30 a.m., you will have excellent opportunities to observe the park's incredible biodiversity.
It is important to note that boat transportation is shared with other visitors. In addition, Corcovado is a highly visited park, especially the Sirena Station, so it is common to encounter other groups on the trails during the tour.
With a bit of luck, you will be able to spot howler monkeys, white-headed capuchin monkeys, spider monkeys, sloths, tapirs, peccaries, coatis, iguanas, crocodiles, and a wide variety of tropical birds, such as scarlet macaws and toucans. Corcovado is considered one of the most biodiverse sites in the Americas.
At around 11:30 a.m., we will stop at Sirena Station, where you will have time to use the restrooms or purchase a light snack or beverage before continuing.
From 12:00 pm to 12:45 pm, we will go on one last short hike along the trails, taking advantage of our final opportunities to spot wildlife.
At 12:45 p.m., we will board the boat to return to Puerto Jiménez, arriving at the dock at approximately 2:20 p.m.
