CURÚ RESERVE

Curú is a protected coastal wildlife reserve, created in 1981. With 1,496 hectares of tropical forest, mangroves and fields along the coast, it has 17 trails for hikers and nature lovers. To date, researchers have identified 78 separate species of mammals, 232 different types of birds, 87 species of reptiles, and more than 500 species of plants in the reserve. This tour is ideal for anyone who wants to connect with nature in beautiful surroundings. Transportation is by minibus, and we’ll pick you up along the main street, whether in Playa Hermosa, Mal País or Santa Teresa. If you need transportation from a hotel or villa in the mountains, this is available at an additional cost, just let us know in advance and we will arrange it for you. Curú Wildlife Refuge is about an hour drive from Santa Teresa. Upon arrival, your guide will wait for you and give an introductory talk about the reserve, including its history and importance, and the common wildlife found there. Then we’ll hike through the reserve for around 2 hours and half, where we’ll appreciate the exuberant forest with a great variety of ecosystems such as mangroves and majestic forest. A large number of animal species can be seen on this tour, such as white-tailed deer, howler monkeys, white-faced monkeys, coatis, raccoons, agoutis, and many species of butterflies, birds, amphibians, and reptiles. Your knowledgeable guide will discuss the environmental issues related to the refuge and identify the flora and fauna found there. This tour is suitable for anyone, adults and children, since the trails are flat and without many challenges.
