Want to fly away? Above the trees, over the seas? To anywhere you please? Take our Osa Azul y Verde air ecoadventure and see the best of the Costa Rican rainforest and the ocean. Blue and green, surf and turf, from the sky. Enjoy the wild blue yonder, the big blue and a sea of green, with whole tree superflowers. If you like the big picture this is the tour for you. Stupendous views of the colors of the vast rainforests of Corcovado National Park and Cano Island Biological Reserve, and a Pacific Ocean thick with dolphin superpods having superfun, multiple species of whales, big sharks, billfish galore, and mantas, turtles and more. Check it out below. All photos from on location with Costa Cetacea.

Osa Air Tour
costacetacea at gmail.com to take Osa Azul y
Verde Air Ecoadventure and see the best of Costa Rica.
Superpods, Superflowers and Superfun.
Join one of the best
pilots and one of the best guides in Costa Rica. Both with thousands
of highly praised tours to their credit. Together they will show
you, and teach you about, the finest rainforest and ocean views. You
won´t just see it, they will make you understand what you are seeing.
Forbidden mountain peaks, humpback whales, endless giant trees,
dolphin superpods, superflowers or rainforest flowering trees,
secret beaches, manta rays, billfish, ecolodges, turtles, Indian trails, hidden
waterfalls, yachts and much much more we spot while we fly like an
eagle to the sea.
To make sure the
adventure is eco we make sure you learn about what you are seeing,
why its special and what needs to be done to protect it. We stay
above 1000 feet or 333 meters to insure that animals and people are
not disturbed. Photography and video will also document any illegal
forest cutting or fishing in places we would never know about. So
your Osa Azul y Verde Air Eco Adventure might just save a tract of
rainforest or pod of whales or dolphins. Plus we give a portion of
proceeds to help carry the torch of Osa conservation awareness. We
also maintain rainforest here on the Osa to help offset fuel burnt on
our flights. When there is space on a flight we take
other local guides for training to add this most excellent tour to
their repertoire.
But wait there's more, if
you want. Since flying will show us where interesting marine like
tuna, whales, dolphin superpods, baitballs, and other large marine
life congregations are swimming, we like to jump in a boat after the
plane and go right to the action. This is the best way to do a blue
water pelagic snorkel safari dive. Click here to see more about the pelagic snorkel safari.
Shawn Larkin of Costa Cetacea invented the Osa Air Tour
after years of flying and diving for movie and documentary film crews as well
as luxury yachts. These guests themselves recommended we offer this
service to ecotourists. So here it is.
We can pick you up at
most airstrips in Costa Rica.
