Costa Rica Cost Of Living Update: $100/person for trip to Corcovado National Park with some fishing thrown in
We decided to go from Puerto Jimenez to the entrance to Corcovado Park by boat. Since the ride takes two hours to get there, my husband convinces the captain to let us and our two friends throw a few lines in the water.
Within ten minutes we catch our first fish only a few hundred feet from shore. “It’s a big jack,” says our captain. We end up catching a few more, including a rooster fish. All were thrown back except the last one; we cooked him over a fire on the beach.
It was a great way to squeeze two tours into one. And a great way to hear me scream “IT’S HUGE” at a decibel level rivaling that of a dolphin (I get very excited when I go fishing).
I wonder what you would have sounded like if that would have been a shark on the other end of the line?
I tend to get a high pitched voice when I get excited. If I saw a shark, probably would have scared it away.
I always look forward to reading about your adventures in Costa Rica. I hope to return and spend some time with you and Rob listening to your funny stories and experiences. Please give my regards to your hubby:)!
It was a great trip, one of my new favorite places. I hope you return to Costa Rica and do some more exploring. It seems there is a adventure around every corner.
Amazing compilation of an amazing day! Osa is truly one of the most amazing places on Earth.
One of the best days ever.
