Copa de Arbol
Location
Accommodation
Occupying the highest ground and with consequent superb views and a refreshing breeze are the lodge’s excellent restaurant and bar. Here you will be served dishes composed of the freshest and most local of ingredients. This is a place of the very finest forest and coastal cuisine.
Experiences
- Make sure you take advantage of all the opportunities provided at the lodge’s beach. You can help yourself to a paddleboard, a kayak or snorkelling equipment.
- Take a ranger-led bird watching walk to spot the dazzling Quetzal. With more than 900 bird species native to Costa Rica, including toucans and macaws, there will always be something fascinating to see.
- The area abounds with wonderful hiking trails through lush rainforests, along inky black streams, amongst dripping ferns, and reaching thundering waterfalls.
- Take a boat trip out into Drake Bay, where many humpback whales come to calve. You will also probably see dolphins and white-tipped sharks. Back on the mainland, Drake Bay is believed to be the likely location of buried pirate treasure.
- Visit the Corcovado National Park, believed to be the place where more than 50% of Costa Rica’s animals live. Visitor numbers are limited to just 50 per day.
