The tractor bumps up a rutted track and the ocean comes into view—Herradura Bay folding out like a dark, gleaming bowl below. At the ridge you step out into warm trade winds; guides clip you in, and the forest seems to lean in to watch as you launch across cables that slice the canopy and open onto sweeping Pacific panoramas.

The tractor bumps up a rutted track and the ocean comes into view—Herradura Bay folding out like a dark, gleaming bowl below. At the ridge you step out into warm trade winds; guides clip you in, and the forest seems to lean in to watch as you launch across cables that slice the canopy and open onto sweeping Pacific panoramas.
The Central Pacific coastline here rests on volcanic foothills where erosion-carved ridges channel coastal rainforest toward the sea. The property occupies roughly 80 acres, half protected under FONAFIFO, and that protection keeps scarlet macaws, chestnut-mandible toucans and white-faced capuchins frequenting the platforms. The canopy tour threads 12 platforms and 10 cables for a combined 3.5 kilometers of line, including a longest run of about 2,400 feet that gives an uninterrupted ocean-to-forest sweep.
Culturally, Jacó and Los Sueños grew fast with surf and sport fishing, but canopy operators have emphasized low-impact routes and bilingual guides to interpret wildlife and land-use history. Expect a brisk two-hour excursion: a brief tractor ride to the top, a safety briefing, then progressive descents that alternate adrenaline and slow observation.
Practical tips: closed-toe shoes and secure clothing are mandatory; weight limit is 250 lb and minimum age is 4. The course suits most fitness levels but isn’t recommended for pregnant guests or those with serious back or heart issues. Bring light layers, insect repellent, and a camera with a secure strap; fresh fruit and water are provided at the end.
