Explore the Enchanting Mangroves of Damas Island 


Step into a world of wonder as you embark on a 2-hour safari tour through the stunning mangrove ecosystems of Damas Island, just 20 minutes from Manuel Antonio. This small paradise, spanning 6 square kilometers, is a haven for biodiversity and a perfect escape into nature. 


 


Your Journey Begins 


Board a comfortable, covered river motorboat designed for a quiet ride through the intricate canals of the coastal mangrove wetlands. As you glide silently through this mysterious environment, your professional naturalist guide will be your companion, sharing insights into the unique biology and interconnections of the mangrove ecosystem. 


 


Discover the Wildlife 


Mangroves are among the toughest forests in the tropics, thriving in the challenging conditions where saltwater meets freshwater. As you navigate through the lush landscape, keep your eyes peeled for the incredible wildlife that calls this area home. Spot exotic reptiles like caimans, crocodiles, and iguanas basking in the sun, while sloths and raccoons may be seen hanging in the trees or on the forest floor. 


Your guide will help you identify the many species, including playful white-faced monkeys swinging through the branches. Don’t forget to look out for colorful crabs, vital scavengers that help maintain the ecosystem, as well as a variety of mollusks and small fish thriving in the mangroves' protective embrace. 


 


A Birdwatcher’s Paradise 


As you drift along the canals, be enchanted by the avian residents. Keep your camera ready for glimpses of kingfishers, ospreys, herons, and egrets. The stability of the boat makes it easy to capture unforgettable wildlife photos that will remind you of this unique adventure. 


 


Connect with Nature 


This tour is not just about sightseeing; it’s about connecting with one of the most vibrant ecosystems on the planet. Feel the serenity of the mangroves as you learn about their importance in coastal protection, carbon storage, and providing habitat for diverse species.
