Rank : 9.5 (average on 6 votes)

Coordinates : 10.451162,-84.069766 (Open in Google Maps)

Subjects : the famous Red Frog Eyes (Agalychnis callidryas) can be found here, in the immediate vicinity of the Lodge, you can also see many other species of amphibians, reptiles and birds, including: Dendrobates auratus, Bothrops asper, Dendrobates pumilio. Good opportunities for macro and landscapes.

Recommended equipment : macro lens and tele; useful, though not essential, a wide angle for landscapes. The tripod is essential, while you can do without the flash, as long as you work almost always at high ISO. (In these places a camera that holds up well the high iso is definitely an advantage)

Best months : throughout the year, but I prefer the rainy season (October-November-December) for a chance to fotografiare overcast, so even in the middle of the day.

How to get there : ticket for San Jose (the capital of Costa Rica) costs about 700-800 €, here you can rent a car and drive to Puerto Viejo (Province Sarapiqui). About 4 km after the village is the entrance of the lodge and the related reserve.

Visits : to payment at the official website you can find all details.

Notes : A few kilometers away is another interesting place, "La Selva Biological Station." The lodge is very beautiful, nestled in the forest.
