Botanika / Crocodile Bay is where we've conducted over 20 Costa Rica workshops, so I'm familiar
In fact, we still use them as our Osa resort for workshops and our participants love it. I am betting that you have met my friend Tom, as he is a close friend of Dennis’s. Tom and his wife have a home not too far from Botanika. Tom actually did a presentation at Botanika, for what I think was one of their initial openings. He gave away a couple of portraits. They provided us with a “trip of a lifetime!”Botanika / Crocodile Bay is where we've conducted over 20 Costa Rica workshops, so I'm familiar
They do a great job as you say. We've been fishing, whale watching, and of course we done a ton of photography. They do rent the condos and Rose and I stayed in one for a month last year running our the 2022 workshops. Super nice.
Hmm - I don't remember a Tom - I'll have to ask Dennis about him next time we chat
it has been a few years now since I was there, but we toured only the east... tourtugerou, which is a national park, Arinal, Irrazu, which is another national park, Monteverdia, for all of the humming birds, LaFourtuna, for more birds. I know that the south west is good, but have not been there personally. this was an unbelieveable trip! have fun.
I agree wholeheartedly with Steve. I went to CR in June of 2021 and stayed at the Crocadile Bay resort on the Osa peninsula. Dennis was our guide and he is an amazing photographer, knowing settings and photographer placement for the best wildlife photos. He also is amazing when it comes to spotting birds, sloths, etc. June had some rain every day but usually at night and the days were somewhat overcast which made the light perfect. Great trip. I think Steve has stayed at the same resort.
