cuisine is created with a uniquely tropical flair. Fresh seafood,
pasta, tasty vegetables, and luscious tropical fruit, prepared
with simplicity and originality are served in a comfortable, expansive

magnificent Drake Bay and the Pacific Coast.

JUNGLE HIKES
WALK INTO A WORLD of immense bio-diversity right on your doorstep.
Trails cross orchid draped streams and wind through virgin jungle,
home to a vast array of exotic birds and mammals. Howler and White-faced
monkeys bound through the canopy. The Scarlet Macaw, Toucan, and
Tanager are just three examples of the 300 species of birds indigenous
to the region.
Guided tours of Corcovado National Park and CaŅo Island Biological
Reserve allow you to further explore the magnificence of this
rainforest frontier to its fullest.

 CA-O ISLAND and selected OSA PENINSULA coastal sites provide
"unequaled parades of pelagic fish" (Skin Diver Magazine): clouds
of fish literally block the sun's rays in the clear waters as
divers penetrate the fish schools. Brightly colored tropical fish,
snapper, tuna, grouper, mackerel, jack, shark, trigger fish, barracuda
(typically in schools), manta rays, eels, porcupine fish, sea
urchins, octopus, lobster, sponges, sea cucumbers, and other marine
species are seen.
There are 15 or more types of stony coral species as well as
the attendant coral eaters (starfish, mollusks, and hermit crabs).
The terrain varies widely and includes 20' reefs, 50' underwater
pinnacles, canyons, walls and caves. Visibility is good to excellent
all year round; often marine life can be viewed 70' below the
surface. Surface sightings include porpoises, Olive Ridley sea
turtles, whale sharks, sea snakes and humpback whales.
CaŅo Island and the Osa Peninsula coast are a part
of a mammoth (Rio Sierpe, Rio Terraba, CaŅo Island) marine ecosystem.
More than one hundred thousand acres of mangrove wetlands and
one thousand miles of fresh and salt water rivers, estuaries and
tributaries interact with the Pacific ocean through tides which
provide for an incredible abundance of marine life. This area
of the Pacific is south of the trade winds and therefore characterized
by gentle swells and breezes.
Rate for Diving - Certified Divers Only
Including Two tanks and all equipment $110

SPORTFISHING
Aguila de Osa Inn offers the most extensive fleet of custom designed
sportfishing vessels available on the southern coast of Costa
Rica. Built specifically for local conditions and keeping the
fly fisherman in mind, these boats are property of the inn, insuring
consistent quality of maintenance and performance. Three new 31'
Palm Beach cold molded sportfishing boats, powered by Caterpillar
3116 turbo diesel powerplants and a 24' Palm Beach center console

sport fisherman the widest options possible.

of Penn and Shimano reels in all weight classes and specializing
in Billy Pates fly reels, the on-board equipment will satisfy
the most demanding angler. Rupp outriggers and a wide assortment
of custom rods specifically designed for this area in all tackle
classes complete the inventory of quality equipment. Aguila de
Osa Inn hires only professional captains and crew to operate and
maintain the fleet.
More than 40 world records have been registered
within a 80 mile radius of the Inn; included are sailfish, black
marlin, blue marlin and the occasional striped marlin, yellowfin
tuna and wahoo are also found in abundance. Inshore species include
large concentrations of roosterfish and cubera snapper. This unique
combination of quality equipment, experienced crew and exceptional
fishing provide the international angler with everything necessary
for the ideal fishing vacation.

GETTING TO AGUILA DE OSA
Part of the charm of Aguila de Osa is that it can only be reached
by boat or sea plane. The most common way of arriving is by taking
a 45 minute scheduled Travelair flight from San JosČ to Palmar
Sur, a short taxi ride to Sierpe and by boat to the Inn.
This final leg of your journey consists of a 25 mile boat ride,
21 miles along Rio Sierpe, viewing the mangrove forest, and an
additional 4 miles on the beautiful Pacific.
During the boat ride you will discover the Sierpe-Terraba Mangrove
Reserve, the largest in Costa Rica, with 54,000 acres. Often you
will see White Faced Monkeys, Howler Monkeys, Caymens, and a large
variety of birds and other wildlife.
WE'VE GOT IT ALL
NESTLED ON Drake Bay in the secluded Osa Peninsula, the Aguila
de Osa Inn offers the finest in fishing, hiking, diving, and dining.
Our guests also enjoy kayaking, horseback riding, beach combing
or just hanging out in a hammock. Enjoy nature at its finest and
hospitality at its best.
