Sierpe-Térraba Mangrove Tour
Térraba-Sierpe National Wetland
Navigate the channels of the Sierpe-Térraba Wetland, the largest protected mangrove area in Central America, and discover crocodiles, caimans, monkeys and hundreds of birds.
Four species of mangrove grow here: black, red, tea and white mangrove. As you navigate, your naturalist guide will point out crocodiles, caimans, turtles, monkeys and snakes. The mangroves are also a paradise for birdwatchers.
Mangroves are amazing plants, with long roots that evolved to survive in salt water with little oxygen. They attract large colonies of birds, mammals, reptiles, amphibians and aquatic life.
