The quaint town of Uvita Costa Rica, located in the south pacific coast near the Osa Peninsula is famous for its local village atmosphere, eco-hotels, stunning beaches and migration of humpback whales to the warm and calm waters of the Marino Ballena National Park. Each year Uvita and the Marino Ballena National Park are blessed with the visits of the humpback whales from December to March and again from late July to early November. The area is also home to resident bottle-nose, spinner and spotted dolphins, hawksbill and olive ridley turtles and a variety of fish, birds, monkeys, insects, plant and tree life.
We went on the whale and dolphin tour. Risto was an excellent tour guide, he had loads of knowledge and made sure everyone was happy and comfortable. Bahia Adventures is a proper outfit with excellent facilities, we would highly recommend booking with them.
