COSTA RICA BIRDWATCHING REGIONS AND HOTSPOTS

The best locations for birdwatching Costa Rica

Discover the birds of Costa Rica by visiting the country´s 6 birding ecological regions and their hotspots along with our naturalist guides. We have designed our birding routes choosing the best lodges and locations, staying at the core sites which are home to 10% of the birds of the world and 5% of the biodiversity on earth.

Visiting all the 6 ecoregions and hotspots of Costa Rica will take you from 15 to 25 nights, even though distances seem short on the map, our country’s topography make road trips slightly longer than expected, besides, every hotspot counts with almost endless mountains, trails, river canyons, roads, waterfalls, rainforests, wetlands, river mouths, forested pastures, savannah plains and beaches that need time to be explored in detail, however we invite you to visit your favorite hotspots according to your target birds, available time, favorite lodges or ecosystems.
