LOOKING FOR SLOTHS

Sloths could be anywhere, but try looking in Hacienda Baru Wildlife Refuge.

SURFING, SWIMMING, BEACH WALKING

Driving 15 - 20 minutes north or south of Pacific Edge, you will encounter

at least a dozen beaches, some very isolated. Some with World Class Surf, such as

Dominical, Dominicalito, Punta Dominical point break, and Playa Hermosa.

The Whales Tale, south of Pacific Edge near Uvita, is a rare tombolo, a geologic

formation, where sand was deposited at the base of a rocky island over centuries

of tides which connected the head to the coast, creating this 'whales tale'.

This is the beginning of Ballena Marine National Park, the beaches south of here are

all more protected with smaller waves from the reef and rocks offshore.

This is where the Humpback Whales migrate to have their babies from both the

north and south hemisphere, twice a year. 

HIKING  ~ BIRDING ~ ZIPLINE

Pacific Edge is fortunate to have only 10 minutes away, the world known private

 national wildlife reserve, "Hacienda Baru", consisting of 330 hectares, with

several ecosystems, including mangrove swamps to primary rainforest.  A safe haven

for Monkeys, Sloths, Ocelots,Jaguarundis, Anteaters, Kinkajous, Tyras,

over 220 Bird species, and the Olive Ridley and Hawkbill Turtles.

Several tours are offered, at Hacienda Baru..canopy exploration, with platforms,

and ziplines also rainforest experience walks, either with or without guide;

there is also the butterfly and orchid gardens; if lucky you may see the turtle

egg's hatching, and the turtles being released into the Pacific Ocean there.
