Drake Bay Costa Rica - everything you need to know
Drake Bay is in the Osa Peninsula of Costa Rica, and it is a phenomenal place! Osa is a must visit if you are traveling Costa Rica. I highly recommend visiting Drake Bay in Osa, I am even planning to go back there myself.
Drake Bay is not a touristy place, it is apparent that Osa has been given a reputation that it is difficult to get to, but it really isn't!! and so, you just need to have the proper information.
In this video you will find out all the logistics of making a trip to the Osa Peninsula along with information about things such as hikes, tours, beaches to visit, how to get there, essential information for your trip and more! also, lots of animal sightings and footage!
If you have any questions I am so happy to help!!

    The sandal part is for the snakes if you venture out and food is allowed, they just don't accept food that is in a plastic container, there's zero plastic allowed in the park so put the food in a recycled paper container , all the cutlery should be recycled and bring the water in a water bottle

    Drake is rather loud for me, I stay outside of town, either way is great. All different rates. Hike to or stay at San Josecito beach, Life for life, that's where the free and outstanding snorkeling is.

    You can also fly from San Jose...depending on season it can be as little as $79 in Sansa the bus and and boat cost half of that from San Jose and literally can take you an entire days travel...so the plane ride to me is worth the money... you get great arial views...it only takes about 40 minutes so you can spend less time on buses and more time exploring.

    Not sure when this video was made, but the bus now goes straight to the riverfront town of Sierpe, no need to stop in Palmar Norte anymore. And the boat ride is $40 each, but only $20 for locals.

    How do you keep the hotel/hostel cleaning staff from going through your stuff and finding all the cash you told me to bring? I lost $500 my first day and another $400 on the beach.

    Just a few days ago we saw two juvenile Fer de Lance snakes. These snakes are ABSOLUTELY LETHAL. We saw them thanks to the guide and just besides the trail. Some of your advice is bad, but by telling people to go outside the trails you are potentially killing them by sending them to areas where invisible venomous snakes are laying around.

  • @ncjuliee
    @ncjuliee 2 роки тому

    This is not great advice. The most concerning is the idea of sneaking in snacks. Please don’t do this. I know we do it in US theaters, but that’s entirely different. They are trying to preserve nature. Just don’t. It’s very hard to spot many animals without a guide. I choose not to on my last trip because I had seen a few sloths and other animals I wanted to see in La Fortuna and just wanted to go at my own pace, but I don’t think that you should tell people they will see more without a guide because that is absolutely not true. Please be responsible when giving advice.

  • @micheleg3040

    Don’t go off the trail! You can harm the habitat and there are poisonous snakes. The trail is there for a reason!

  • @johne1071
    @johne1071 2 роки тому

    Mostly they say don't leave the trails, because there are Tarantulas spiders living on the ground. I learned this in Guatemala. Where the guide picked up the spider . Its legs were as big as my fingers. Do not step on them.

    You don't need a guide, but they are still worth it. I've done rainforest tours with and without guides, and even though I find things on my own, guides always show a shocking amount of things that I easily would have missed. Also, you don't need shoes, but they are still worth it, especially for the protection factor.

  • @rickys288
    @rickys288 2 роки тому

    Not supposed to go off the designated trail because foot traffic can destroy the creatures/plants homes and the natural ecology of the jungle floor. We want to preserve the natural ecology for others that also want to also enjoy it in the future.

  • @robertgundy9606

  • @lenyfernandez5575
    @lenyfernandez5575 2 роки тому

    DO NOT go out of the trail!!!! We have a shit ton of venomous snakes, most of them in the pacific and as Andres said... the Terciopelo has one of the most dangerous venom in Central America, whatever the snake bites you will loose it. So don't go out of the trail, besides that.. the park is an amazing place to visit!! The beaches are amazing and us Costa Ricans are very friendly so if you need something don't hesitate to ask, just make sure the guy you are asking doesn't have like jail tattoos or looks sketchy, try to ask questions to the young people that are not as tanned as everyone else that may seem local.
