Research Station
Rustic Cabins

At Pacuare Reserve, solo travelers, researchers, volunteers, student groups, and teachers can experience firsthand the work of a field station dedicated to biodiversity research and conservation, where wildlife monitoring collects scientific data on species like the Leatherback turtle and the Agami heron.

The Reserve has two field stations where you can stay in a rustic wooden cabin nestled in the forest.
