Birding in the Caribbean and Pacific Slope of Costa Rica June 26 - July 5.
Join us for a birding adventure to the wet Caribbean and dry Pacific slopes of Costa Rica, home to well over 500 species of birds. Our travels will take us first to the Camaquiri Conservation Initiative, a 500 acre preserve established in 2019 by a coalition of conservationists from the US and Costa Rica that offers a unique, authentic rural Costa Rican atmosphere. The bird list stands at 289 species and counting. Facilities are basic and clean with an excellent trail system and delicious Costa Rican food prepared by local residents. In addition to exploring Camaquiri, day trips to other birding locations will include a boat excursion on the Rio Colorado. Our second destination, ParK Nacional Carara, is one of the top birding locations in Costa Rica. We will enjoy comfortable lodge accommodations while exploring dry and transition forest habitats, hiking the Villa Lapas bridge hanging trail and visiting the Rio Tarcoles bridge to watch Scarlet Macaws flying back and forth to roost sites. The tour will emphasize extensive bird walks supplemented with informal lectures on the ecology and behavior of tropical birds.
Tuition: $2,000
Deadline: May 1st, 2026.
