Pacuare Nature Reserve is located between Tortuguero and Limon, on the Caribbean Coast of Costa Rica. Surrounded by canals and the sea, the reserve is only accessible by boat. The reserve and the surrounding canals are rich in wildlife with over 300 recorded species of animals, including 3 species of monkeys, over 200 species of birds, and rarer species such as jaguar and ocelot. The rare and beautiful agami heron nests in a small lagoon within the reserve.

The main trail runs the length of the reserve, through the forest behind the beach. Other shorter trails lead to areas of special interest, making the observation of an incredible array of flora and fauna species easy and enjoyable. Visitors can look forward to activities such as day/night guided walks along the forest paths and boat trips on the canal to see wading birds, crocodiles and caimans.
