About Cabo Matapalo - Peninsula de Osa

Matapalo

Cabo Matapalo is located on the tip of the incomparable Osa Peninsula (South Pacific Costa Rica). Known for its remoteness, Matapalo is a hidden paradise amongst jungle and ocean. Excellent beaches, amazing surf points and lush natural sceneries provide lots of peace, quiet and fun.

Thanks to its closeness to Corcovado National Park, Matapalo's exuberant wildlife is within reach. Macaws flying over your head and waking to the sound of the Howler monkeys are just some of the experiences.
