Why May

May is the entry point to Caribbean wet season proper. The Pacuare swells with returning rainfall and transitions from its technical emerald form toward its powerful high-water state. Steeper trail sections in the reserve become conditional after heavy overnight rain and some routes require judgment before committing.

What's possible this month
Raft the Pacuare as it builds volume through the month toward its summer high-water character
Take a guided night walk as frog and amphibian populations reach seasonal peak density on the reserve floor
Spot black-and-green poison dart frogs and red-eyed tree frogs active throughout the saturated understory
Hike the lower reserve trails on mornings after nights without heavy rain
Conditions
🌞 Warm 81.9°F days💧 High humidity🌅 13hr daylight
↓
Trails becoming limitedSteep sections of the reserve trail network become slippery and some routes close after sustained rain. The full hiking itinerary available in February and March is not reliably accessible from May onward.
