🚐 Pre-book an airport transfer →Getting Around
San José Airport (SJO) → Casa Corcovado Jungle Lodge, Drake Bay
💡 Book via Casa Corcovado directly for door-to-door service including the boat transfer from Sierpe. Don't take a local bus; it adds 2+ hours and misses the tide-dependent boat window.
San José Airport (SJO) → Casa Corcovado Jungle Lodge, Drake Bay
💡 Land at Drake Bay airstrip (DRK). A pre-arranged lodge transfer picks you up at the airstrip and takes you straight to the lodge dock—no extra taxi needed. Book early; seats fill fast.
San José (Coca-Cola bus station) → Casa Corcovado Jungle Lodge, Drake Bay
💡 The cheapest option but brutal—7 hours on a hot bus then negotiate a shared boat from Sierpe for ~$15. Best if you're on a tight budget and don't mind a rough ride. Confirm boat times beforehand; you might get stranded if you miss the 14:00 boat.
Puerto Jiménez Airport (PJM) → Casa Corcovado Jungle Lodge, Drake Bay
💡 Use this option only if your flight lands in Puerto Jiménez. The shuttle includes a 20-min boat ride from the road end to the lodge. Cheaper than San José shuttle but only if you're already in Osa.

Top Attractions in Bahía Drake
💡 Buy local fruit like mango and starfruit from the stalls near the dock — cheaper than the supermarket. The market is busiest Friday evening.
💡 Slippery after rain — wear trainers. The path is not lit, so bring a torch for sunset return.
💡 Ask at the SINAC ranger station about current nesting activity. Do not use white light — red torch only, and stay behind any marked nests.
💡 Set off at low tide, otherwise the water covers the path. Bring water shoes for the rocky section near the point.
💡 Go early on a weekday to have the pools to yourself. No facilities, so take water and leave nothing behind.
