By Boat * Close to 'Palmar Sur' lies the small town of 'Sierpe', here awaits an hour and a half journey by boat. Traveling thru the biggest mangrove forest in Central America is a definite treat, and for many an exciting way to start the adventure. After about an hour thru mangrove forest and stunning wide views you'll enter the ocean's realm thru the rivermouth. crossing over to the Bay in about 15min. Then take off you're shoes and prepare yourself for a beach landing. |

We will be happy to arrange transportation for you, to take you to the hotel. The airport is located in the nearby town of progreso, which lies about a 20 minute taxi ride away from beautiful Drake Bay.

Car Adventure seekers with off-road experience can make it over by car. You absolutely need four-wheel-drive. Costarican roads are not always in good shape. The road from Chaqarita to Drake Bay (75km.) is one with many holes, climbing and descending steep mountains, with small bridges and rivers to cross. We recommend venturing out this way only during the dry season. Dependent on the amount of rain rivers rise quickly and become a chocolate colored danger with often tedious/long waits for water levels to drop with little civilization around. Be warned! However Jumanji Bungalows is reachable by car. In dry season experienced drivers(!) taking your time with plenty of water on board, enjoying amazing views crossing the Peninsula this way! You are sure to realize where you are/how remote you are. |

Bus From the Capital San Jose (and various other cities) the bus will get you to Palmar Norte which takes along 7 hours. Take a taxi to Sierpe and enjoy the wet way in; thru river and ocean. Be sure to get to sierpe in time to catch a boat! There is the possibility to come all the way by bus. A microbus goes once a day from Chaquarita to Drake Bay which will take about 3 hours of adventure and views on a bumpy road! Coming from Puerto Jimenez there is a bus that goes once a day from Rincon to Drake Bay every day in dry season. Please check for last minute changes! |
