This morning aboard National Geographic Quest, we made a special visit to a private property officially known as Dolphin Quest, named after the dry river that gives the area its name. After a satisfying breakfast, our guests disembarked with excitement, eager to explore the serene beauty of this location. Rio Seco, with its tranquil atmosphere and lush surroundings, offers a perfect escape into nature.
The guests scattered in small groups, each choosing a different path to immerse themselves in the landscape. Along the walks, they were delighted to spot white-faced capuchin monkeys, while the calls of various birds added to the charm. Some guests were fortunate to see the majestic scarlet macaws, both in the morning and afternoon.
In the afternoon, we repositioned to Golfito, anchoring at the Golfito Dock. The outing began with some guests exploring the area by kayaks, while others took a Zodiac cruise. We spotted a Central American tree boa, several seabirds, and a three-toed sloth hanging at the edge of the forest.
As we returned, the hills of Golfito grew cloudy, and we were greeted by a refreshing rain.
