See rescued sloths, monkeys, pumas, jaguars, and more up close at Diamante’s Animal Sanctuary, where licensed biologists share each animal’s story.
Visit the Animal Sanctuary at Diamante Eco Adventure Park, home to one of the largest collections of rescued wildlife in Costa Rica. Working alongside SINAC, the government agency responsible for the country's wildlife, the sanctuary cares for animals that cannot be returned to the wild, with a team of biologists and veterinarians overseeing their care.
Walk through habitats designed to reflect each species' natural environment, with close viewing of sloths, monkeys, toucans, frogs, snakes, crocodiles, and wild cats including pumas and jaguars. The butterfly observatory and a wide variety of small birds and reptiles round out the visit, and licensed biologists are on hand throughout the sanctuary to answer questions and share each animal's story.
Ideal for families, nature lovers, and travelers interested in Costa Rica's conservation efforts, this experience offers an educational, up-close look at the country's wildlife at a relaxed pace.

Around twelve years in Costa Rican tourism. On the drive between Guanacaste and Arenal he points out how fast the landscape and climate change, and shares the history of both regions along the way. His picks: the Palo Verde boat safari and Rincón de la Vieja's Pailas trail.
Twenty years guiding Costa Rica as a general and naturalist guide, with a special passion for botany: he points out plant adaptations, ecological relationships and the quiet work that trees, flowers and lianas do in the ecosystem. His favorite day is Palo Verde, where wildlife, tropical wetlands, cultural traditions and history meet — and the birdlife is spectacular.
Twenty-two years in tourism, from restaurants to tour sales to driving and guiding. Místico is his favorite trail: rich in wildlife, easy to walk, and full of the forest's secrets. On transfers north he loves the moment the dry Pacific crosses an invisible line into rainforest green.
