Our Camps

EL NIDO DEL TIGRE

El Nido del Tigre or The Tiger's Nest, is an evolving dream for Coast to Coast Adventures. Its name comes from the giant patches of ginger plants which fall and create the shape of a tiger’s nest. From the center of the nest, trails radiate throughout the rainforest and along the river.

Our camp has a dual personality. At times it is a hive of activity perhaps with a soccer or Frisbee game, or teams frantically hurrying into the camp to record their finish time in a racing challenge. While at other times it is a peaceful, tranquil and relaxing environment following a day on the rapids.

At meal times the camp adopts different atmospheres depending on its guests. Sometimes it is host to sociable buzzing tables of excited conversations while at others to the beat of gentle romance.

One of its other guises is in welcoming groups involved in sometimes bizarre and other times intriguing learning activities.

Sustainability is a key word at El Nido del Tigre as we strive to achieve the perfect harmony between rainforest and tourism. The camp has captured the imagination of the local people, many of whom we thank for their assistance and patience in building this unusual environment and a number of them who remain with us on our continuing journey to develop the dream.

Spacious tents on fixed platforms co-mingle with the forest and border the river. Our team love to welcome clients – a stay at El Nido del Tigre promises a unique experience - so come and join us!

FINCA PACUARITO

As the Pacuare River levels and the rapids give way to the gentle current of the beckoning Caribbean Ocean, Finca Pacuarito sits on the side of the river nestled amongst banana plantations. Another of Coast to Coast’s dreams was realized in 2005 when searching for an ideal location we happened upon a very overgrown un-used stretch of land and had the vision to form our second camp. Some 20 local laborers assisted in clearing the land, planting the gardens and building a home for Francisco and his family who joined our team to look after our clients and make sure the camp is always presented at its best.

Host to all clients who raft on the Pacuare River as this is the take out, Finca Pacuarito and its warm welcome at the end of what is a challenging rafting section, firmly stays in the hearts and minds of our clients. Located amidst banana plantations and bordering the Pacuare River as it slows its pace, the camp is either a brief visit to enjoy natural showers and a refreshing drink after rafting, or an overnight stay for many of our Group and Charity events as well as our flagship Coast to Coast trip.
