Casa Tres Peces - Location

CASA TRES PECES is situated on the coast in Cabo Matapalo on the very Southern tip of the Osa Peninsula in Costa Rica where the Gulfo Dulce meets the Pacific Ocean. It is an 8 hour drive or 45 minute flight from San Jose and the nearest town is Puerto Jimenez which is 12 miles (20 km) away.

This area is one of the most biodiverse places on the planet with one of the last lowland rainforests left in the world. Besides this, the gulf is one of only four fjords in the tropics and the calving area for both Northern and Southern Pacific populations of humpback whales, a phenomenon occurring no where else in the world.

They say that researchers can typically count 125 different mammals, 250 species of butterflies, 400 species of birds and 750 distinct kinds of trees in only a four square mile patch of rainforest. This means that you are most likely to see an abundance of tropical life even on a short walk down the road.

There are hundreds of bird species, 4 kinds of monkeys, anteaters, sloths, pizotes many reptiles including lizards, geckos and large iguanas and if you are lucky you can catch a glimpse of one of the many cats that roam the area. Don't forget the amazing beauty of the incredible Blue Morpho Butterfly that reminds one of being in the movie Bambi.

The thriving nature the Osa provides is an incredible opportunity to connect with nature in a way that is just not possible in many places. Life is brought back to the natural cycles of the sun.
