Soar above Costa Rica’s Pacific coast on our Gyrocopter Adventure Tour, departing from the Buena Vista Airstrip. Your expert pilot, Jorge, will guide you skyward in an open-cockpit gyrocopter, providing exhilarating “surf-in-gyro” moments and unparalleled views of the Buena Vista River, Carrillo Beach, Isla Chora Wildlife Refuge, and the rolling Barrigona hills. Feel the wind rush past as you explore river corridors and coastal landscapes from a bird’s-eye perspective, while Jorge’s bilingual narration (EN/ES) brings local ecology, wildlife sightings, and scenic highlights to life.
We will meet you at the airstrip in Buenavista, Sámara to begin the activity. The exact location will be sent after your booking is confirmed.
