Without roads or airports, the difficult access has allowed this corner of the world to maintain its natural beauty. Punta Rio Claro is your gateway to Corcovado National Park, one of the most important natural preserves in Central America. Punta Rio Claro is one of the last refuges for Jaguars, Giant Anteaters, Tapirs, White lipped Peccaries and a host of other rare rain forest animals. High plateau forest, with trees towering over 140 feet and supporting hundreds of species of ferns, bromeliads and orchids, combines with palm swamps and mangroves to make the refuge a botanists dream.<\/p>\n<p>Punta Rio Claro National Wildlife Refuge is a very discreet place, perfect for relaxing or for experiencing a tropical paradise adventure and get fascinated with the lush flora and fauna, and enjoying the opportunity of partaking in many different exciting activities. Experience adventure tours and sports like bird and whale watching, snorkeling, swimming, horseback riding and more, or simply stay, relax and enjoy the rainforest and wildlife that the refuge has to offer.<\/p>\n<p>During your visit you will have a chance to see monkeys playing around and the noisy Scarlet Macaws, and during the whale season, from June through April, Humpback Whales migrate each year from both the Northern and Southern hemisphere to their breeding grounds just off the coast of Costa Rica.\u00a0It is one of the most spectacular gatherings in nature.<\/p>\n<p>Punta Rio Claro also has knowledgeable guides of these areas who give tours to nearby Corcovado National Park, Ca\u00f1o Island or walks through the Punta Rio Claro National Wildlife Refuge. Throughout the course of the walk along the primary rain forest trails, you may visit a beautiful creek or a giant tree of several hundred years. The naturalist will point out wildlife and also explain points of interest in the ecology of the rain forest. The trails are relatively steep in places, but the pace is slow. A system of trails through various areas of Punta Rio Claro National Wildlife Refuge, are excellent for bird watching, wildlife observation and exploration. People can expect to see numerous birds such as toucans, parrots and other exotic species as well as various animals including the 4 species of monkeys.<\/p>\n<p>The hike will lead you to the mouth of the Rio Claro (Clear River), a natural fresh water swimming pool right next to the ocean.
