Playa Caletas and Corcovado National Park at San Pedrillo
This morning we were anchored in Drake Bay. The humid forest was condensing clouds, creating layers over the lush vegetation of the area, as a background for those that were stretching on the deck with Susan.
After breakfast we repositioned to Caletas, a private reserve that protects a great biodiversity and serves as a buffer zone for Corcovado National Park. The horseback riders had their wet landing first, ready to ride by a trail near the beach, were they got close to white-faced capuchin monkeys.
The other part of the group decided to hike over the numerous trails of Caletas. Together with the Naturalists, they were able to see chestnut-mandibled toucans, chestnut-backed antbirds, black-hooded antshrikes, cherrie’s tanagers, violeceous trogons, black-throated trogons and many other colorful birds.
During the afternoon we moved south to Corcovado National Park where we had a great time. The warm tropical rain showered the forest. The trees here are impressively tall, the vegetation is dense and with the rain it looked much more vibrant. The waterfall provided the guests a pool to swim in and a place to enjoy the afternoon in a spot primarily made up of forest.
