On our second day of the year, we had the amazing opportunity to explore another area of Golfo Dulce, landing on Playa Blanca. We explored the most important area of the Costa Rica Osa Peninsula where one can find 3% of the biodiversity of the world, making this area very attractive for nature lovers.
Today we also had the opportunity to learn how the locals have developed ways to protect the rainforest and also, through entrepreneurial efforts, benefit from its offerings. It was a great day getting a glimpse a day in the life of Costa Ricans. National Geographic Quest guests enjoyed panning for gold, learning about sugarcane production, and visiting chocolate and hearts of palm farms.
We finished our excursions with a nature walk through the rainforest. It was a wonderful day exploring this unique destination.
