C5,000 for our truck (6t, Iveco Daily 4x4) to cross the river. Might be cheaper for smaller vehicles. Bit pricey but worth it to cut the corner between Penisula Osa and Uvita. Route from south of the river across to the main Golfo Dulce road is a lovely drive with great views down along the coast, but it's a dirt road, needing high-clearance and ideally 4x4, even in the dry season.
