June 27, 2021 Mollie Coke

Legend has it that notorious pirate Sir Francis Drake hid his treasures somewhere in Drake Bay, hence the name. Doubloons or not, there are plenty of natural treasures to marvel over, like lush rainforests and colorful sea life. Invest in a guided hiking, diving, fishing, tubing or treetop canopy tour to get the full Drake Bay experience. “Tracie the Bug Lady” even offers a night tour to acquaint you with all of the local creepy crawlies.

IF you choose Drake Bay - choose Corcovado info center It is really hard to put in words all positive emotions which I received during the time I used services which Corcovado Info Center and it's team provided. I had a overnight tour in Corcovado National Park with excellent quide Jairo. We saw a lot of different animals and the guide was very knowledged and attentive. I also took a Mangrove tour on Sierpe River which was guided by Kenneth. Excellent experience. Kenneth always asked what I expect, what I want to see and how do I feel myself. He was super caring, always present and goal-oriented. But the best experiences were ofcourse snorgeling and fishing which I had at least 3 different times. All of them were in different places and with different targets. Our Dream-team made everything to catch different type and sizes of Fish. The team really cared to give the best experience. I spend in Drake Bay all together 14 nights and best time of it was the time spent with Corcovado Info Center and its team.
