  Perfect boat day

  Half day snorkeling PM on April 25, 2026 • 4 adults

  We had the best day on the water with our captain, Bismark. We were pretty low-key and didn't really care where we went or what we did--just wanted to enjoy some time on a boat. What we got--beach visits, a little snorkeling, delicious--I mean delicious, guacamole made on the boat, swim time, ice cold beer, fresh pineapple, and even caught a fish when heading back to shore. We also had a perfect sunny day with calm seas so really couldn't have had a better experience. Highly recommend and just let the day unfold as it may...

  Great time snorkeling

  4 Hour – Snorkeling Adventure on December 24, 2025 • 4 adults

  We try to go snorkeling every place we can and even though many said the snorkeling in Tamarindo was not very good we had a great time. Sailfish arrived right on schedule and at our first stop we saw tons of fish and while there is no beautiful coral we still had fun and I enjoyed the fact that the area was shallow allowing us the get up close. The wind really picked up which is typical in December so we moved to a nice protected cove where I saw a huge sea turtle and at one point was surrounded by a school of at least 300 fish about 3 feet long. Overall we had a great time and I would highly recommend booking a private tour vs getting on a boat with 20 - 50 other people for roughly the same price.
