Coffee Butterfly Garden

Be sure to take a walk through the coffee butterfly garden. This lovely facility is home to 15 species that undergo the complete metamorphosis within these walls. Among the specie you will be able to observe the Blue Morpho, Monarch, Owl Butterfly and the Heliconias. Also in the garden you will find each butterfly’s host plant, aerial trails, watersheds and botanical gardens. Reproduction does not take place in the garden, but at a separate facility. Your guide will explain the metamorphosis process to you in every stage, while from egg to adult butterfly. There are signs that point out specific plants and species to help you find them. Magnifying glasses are also available to help you get a closer look at these interesting creatures. If you are lucky you may get a chance to see a pupa hatching! This mini Costa Rica tour lasts approximately 20 minutes.
