El Mirador del Aguila is a fantastic Eagle Lookout Point. There are also spectacular views here. There is a trash-covered paved exit in the trees, that goes downhill at an angle (the trash is only near the entrance – you can drive through it.) This road drops down through some lovely forest, and goes for a good while; the paving ends pretty quick and soon the road almost touches the cuota road, you can slip onto the cuota road here.. This paved section reminded me of the road down to the stream at Virgen Del Socorro in Costa Rica, in that you can see stuff in the canopy at eye-level, to the left.

General Directions:

This is located on the libre/free H15, some 7.7 kms from the western end of this c. 27km section. Coming from the west you get onto a wide divided highway that eventually becomes the cuota/toll road. There is a well-marked left exit to the libre/free H15, and the Mirador is c. 7.7 kms from this exit. We found a great spot that is just 0.6kms on the libre road from this junction, on the right.

Tips:

On the return to San Blas, there is an excellent chance to see a flock of rare Military Macaws.
