Main attractions
A butterfly garden and breeding centre near Jacó housing dozens of Costa Rican butterfly species in free-flight enclosures — Blue Morpho, Owl Butterfly, Malachite and Postman species are among those commonly encountered at close range in the garden
The breeding laboratory displays the full life cycle from egg through caterpillar and chrysalis to emergence — the chrysalis display alone, with its extraordinary variety of gold-studded cases hanging in rows, is worth the visit independently of the adult butterfly garden
Take note
Butterflies are most active in the morning when temperatures are warm but not yet at peak — timing the visit before midday gives the best encounter rates; wear bright colours to attract the butterflies; photography is excellent in the enclosed garden where subjects are approachable and well-lit

Main attractions
An aerial tram system running through primary Pacific rainforest canopy — open gondolas ascend through the forest layers from floor to emergent canopy, giving unobstructed views of bromeliads, orchids, sloths and the full vertical range of tropical forest life without the physical demands of a trail
Zip-line circuits through the same forest system offer a more active canopy experience — multiple lines of varying length and height traverse the forest from platform to platform above the understorey
Things to do
Combine the tram and zip-line for the full range of canopy perspectives — the tram gives slow, observational access ideal for wildlife and photography; the zip-line gives speed, height and the sensation of moving through the forest as its own residents do
Take note
Book both tram and zip-line tickets in advance, particularly in high season; the tram operates on a schedule — confirm departure times when booking; bring insect repellent and a light waterproof layer as the forest generates its own rain regardless of coastal conditions

Daytrip é amado em todo o mundo. Aqui está o porquê.
Royal Butterflies and Rainforest Adventures, Jaco, are both located near Jaco, generally within 12 miles (20 km) of town, with each drive taking roughly 20 to 30 minutes. The total day trip lasts about 6 hours and 15 minutes, which includes 2 hours at the butterfly garden and 3 hours and 20 minutes at Rainforest Adventures, plus all transfers between Jaco and the two sites.
Yes, the zip-line at Rainforest Adventures Jaco is operated by certified guides who provide safety equipment, harnesses, and a thorough briefing before the activity. The lines are designed to accommodate first-time zip-liners as well as experienced adventurers. The park follows strict safety standards, and equipment is regularly inspected. The aerial tram is a great alternative for those who prefer a slower-paced experience without the adrenaline.
Absolutely. Royal Butterflies is gentle, educational, and engaging for kids of all ages who love nature and wildlife. Rainforest Adventures Jaco offers the aerial tram, which is suitable for young children and grandparents alike, providing a calm canopy experience without physical exertion. Older children can usually try the zip-lines, though minimum age and weight requirements apply. Always check restrictions when booking activities directly with the park.
Royal Butterflies is a butterfly garden and breeding center home to dozens of native Costa Rican species, including the brilliant Blue Morpho, Owl Butterfly, Malachite, and Postman butterflies. Visitors walk through free-flight enclosures where butterflies fly close enough to land on you. A breeding lab showcases the full life cycle from egg to chrysalis to emergence, offering a fascinating educational experience for nature lovers and photography enthusiasts alike.
Rainforest Adventures Jaco is an eco-park set within primary Pacific rainforest, offering an aerial tram and zip-line circuits through the canopy. The tram is a relaxed, observational ride ideal for spotting sloths, birds, and orchids in the upper forest layers. The zip-lines provide a more energetic experience across multiple platforms above the forest floor. Combining both activities offers a complete view of the rainforest from a unique perspective.
Beyond butterflies, the rainforest around Jaco is home to a remarkable variety of wildlife. Watch for sloths, white-faced capuchin monkeys, scarlet macaws, toucans, iguanas, and colorful tree frogs. Many species are spotted from the aerial tram, where the open gondolas allow excellent views of the canopy. Birdwatchers can often spot trogons, motmots, and tanagers, while morning visitors may catch the rainforest at its most active.
Wear comfortable, lightweight clothing in bright colors, which can attract butterflies. Closed-toe walking shoes or sneakers are recommended for the tram and zip-line. Bring insect repellent, sunscreen, a hat, sunglasses, and a light waterproof layer since rainforests can produce sudden showers. A camera or smartphone with a good zoom is great for wildlife photography. Don't forget cash for entrance tickets, lockers, and any souvenirs.
Mornings are the best time to visit Royal Butterflies, as butterflies are most active when temperatures are warm but not yet at their peak. The breeding center opens early and closes by early afternoon. Rainforest Adventures Jaco is enjoyable throughout the day, though earlier visits often coincide with cooler conditions and better wildlife sightings. Costa Rica's dry season (December through April) is generally the most reliable for outdoor activities.
