Our Services:

Morning Excursion

Sunset Tour

Morning Catamaran Trip & Afternoon Sunset Boat Cruise

You have the option of booking a Morning Catamaran Tour or an Afternoon Sunset Sailing Cruise.   Our regular Catamaran Tour provides an affordable low price per person.   You share the boat with other guests.   Its a great way to meet people who are also vacationing in Manuel Antonio, Costa Rica. 

The total length time of each tour is 4 hours.  The morning cruise is very popular from May all the way through the end of November because these months are considered to be rainy season here in Costa Rica and the morning time will often be very Sunny while the afternoon might come with some rain.  We do want you to take this into consideration when choosing to book either the morning or afternoon sunset tour. 

From December through April the Sunset Afternoon Catamaran Tour is the most popular because during this time we don`t get rain in the afternoon.  In fact, those months are considered to be Summer Time here in Costa Rica.

Below You Can Read Reviews From Our Guests

Premier Boats with comfortable seating and shade plus water slide 

Catamaran Manuel Antonio provides you with the most diverse options of boats which include a Catamaran, Sailboat and Trimaran. All of our Boats provide a lot of comfortable places for you to sit and enjoy viewing the entire rich coast of Manuel Antonio.  

The trimaran and catamaran offer a water slide on the back which is a lot of fun for kids and adults.  The waterslide gives the tour an extra dose of adrenaline and a chance to jump in the tropical waters of Costa Rica.   

The Sailboat is a favorite amongst those who seek the true sailor experience.  It is a 56 ft Sailboat which a beautiful blue color haul and it was built perfectly to explore the coast of Manuel Antonio. 

What to Expect during our Catamaran Tour 

The catamaran tour starts by us picking you up at your Hotel or Villa and bringing you down to our office located at the Marina Pez Vela in downtown Quepos.   If you have your own transportation, you can drive to the Marina Pez Vela using the navigational App Waze. 

Once we have collected the balance payment at our office it is time to make a very short walk to the dock where our crew is ready and waiting for you to arrive.   You will be introduced to our Captain and Tour Guides who will be with you during the catamaran tour. 

A brief safety instruction is provided in both English and in Spanish.   Now it is time for us to set sail and start the catamaran cruise around the rich and beautiful coast of Manuel Antonio, Costa Rica.    

Time to go Snorkeling in Manuel Antonio – The Reef of Biesanz

One of the favorite part of the tour amongst our guests has to be going Snorkeling in the reef of Playa Biesanz.   Remember, we provide snorkeling gear for you, so you don`t have to worry about brining your own snorkeling equipment.   We have snorkeling gear for Adults and for Kids. 

Our instructor will provide you with a very brief but very important safety talk about how to properly go snorkeling around the reef.   One of our guides will join you on the snorkeling journey to take you to the spots where we have seen the largest variety of small fish.

We have some crackers for you to take if you would like to feed the fish, this is a great way to attract the fish towards you and get a close up experience.   The fish found in the reef of Biesanz are small in size but very beautiful in their colors.   Interacting with the fish and being in the water is going to be a fun adventure for you and when you come back, we will have a complete meal prepared for you. 

What you can see during the Catamaran Cruise Tour

We will be on the look out for marine life such as dolphins, turtles and even Whales.   It is important to note that Whales are most common from end of July to end of October.   However, the dolphins can be found year around.    

Also flying around are a lot of birds such as the Brown Booby and Magnificent Frigatebird.   These birds are considered pelagic because they spend most of their time flying over the ocean while spending very little time on some small islands which are also visible during the catamaran tour. 

The perfect environment to relax & enjoy the ocean

We try our hardest to make sure you are happy and comfortable during the entire catamaran cruise which is why we try to keep a relaxed and joyful environment on the boat.   Our guides are always making sure you have a drink and are there to answer any of your questions. 

Being out on the ocean will allow you to take in all of the beautiful scenery of Manuel Antonio which is sure to impress.   From the boat, you get a unique point of view of Manuel Antonio which allows you to see all of the dense jungle areas plus several of the small islands. 

We will take you around the beaches of the Manuel Antonio National Park.   Puerto Escondido is the name of one of the three beaches inside the National Park and it can only be accessed via Boat which is great for you because you will be on our catamaran cruise, allowing you full access to view Puerto Escondido. 

The Food & Drinks on our Catamaran Tour.

Another favorite amongst our guests is our food and drinks.   We serve everything fresh and prepared on the boat the day of your tour.   We serve fresh fish or chicken with delicious rice and vegetables.   Our drinks are very tasty cocktails and we have a wide variety for too choose from.   The food is prepared by our chef and he uses only the best ingredients to make the fish, rice and vegetables.   We guarantee you that you will find our food and drinks to be very tasty. 

A friendly and helpful Staff to make your experience the best it can be

The staff of Catamaran Manuel Antonio is here to make sure you are happy and having a lot of fun during the entire catamaran tour.   We have bilingual guides who speak both Spanish & English and are there to assist you with anything that you need or answer your questions. 

Our Staff is very knowledgeable about the area of Manuel Antonio and about the different islands, and marine life that is found in near the coast.

Private Catamaran Tour in Manuel Antonio Costa Rica

Our regular shared tour is where you go with other guests but we also provide a Private Catamaran Coastal Cruise for all of our boats.   You can do the Private Catamaran Tour for both the morning and   afternoon sunset cruise.  

Included will be the same as our regular shared catamaran trip but the difference is that this will only be you and your group so you get a more one on one personalized service. 

We are flexible to you the client, so if you wish to book one of our boats for a private cruise it can be for a Birthday, Bachelor Party, Wedding Celebration, and the list goes on.  

Tell us what you have in mind for the Private Catamaran Tour and we will be happy to assist you in making it happen.    

The various catamaran cruises feature a variety of comfort, food and activities. But one thing, which they all share in common, is that they all offer  the comfortable boat ride, that only a wide, multi hulled boat, can provide. Stability is just one advantage of these  Catamaran tours .

These beamy yachts can also accommodate activities, such as  water slides , sun bathing and even dancing, for those who like to party.

“Sunset Sails” is known for their delicious full course meals, which they serve on both of their boats. On their Morning Tour, they serve lunch, and on their Sunset Cruise, it’s dinner. We recommend that you don’t make any other dinner plans, as you probably won’t have room for another bite, until breakfast. The generous portions of their delicious fresh fish meals are a great added value to your cruise, and would cost upwards of $20 in a restaurant. Most of the various Catamaran Tour companies offer food, however Sunset Sails takes great pride in the quality, and plentiful portions of their full course meal. .

A coastal tour around the shores of Manuel Antonio is a very popular activity and with good reason.  Whether you choose the morning tour, for the better snorkeling in the tropical waters of Manuel Antonio, or the afternoon tour, to view a Beautiful Sunset, you always have a great chance to see Dolphins jumping, or swimming in the boat’s bow wake.

Our service specializes in boating activities here in Manuel Antonio, Costa Rica.  With over 17 years of boating and tourism business here in Manuel Antonio, we will make sure that you don’t have to worry about finding the best fun and relaxing boat tour.

Thinking about taking a catamaran tour in Manuel Antonio National Park?

These tours are an absolute blast! Hopping on a catamaran is an awesome way to enjoy beautiful coastal views and spot marine life, plus there’s food, drinks, and snorkeling. Seriously, what could be better?

Since these tours are so fun, we tested out quite a few of them while living in Costa Rica, and now we’ve rounded up our top picks for you. This is not something you get to do every day, so it’s important to make the right decision and get the most out of your adventure.

Quick Pick: Our Favorite Tour

Don’t have time to read the full article?

Our personal FAVORITE tour is this half-day catamaran experience along the coast. There’s the chance to see dolphins and turtles, go snorkeling, enjoy an included lunch and open bar, and watch the sunset! Check out all the 5-star reviews and book this tour here .

Tip: Reserve this tour early to guarantee your spot and get FREE cancellation 24 hours before you go!

1. Half-Day Sailing Tour with Lunch and Open Bar

• Price: $95 USD 
• Duration: 4 hours
• Time: 9 am or 2 pm 
• Highlights: Spotting dolphins and sea turtles, snorkeling at Biesanz Beach, sunset if you choose afternoon sail 
• Inclusions: Unlimited soft drinks and cocktails, snorkeling gear, lunch (vegetarian option available), hotel pickup and drop-off
• Rating: 4.5 Stars ( Check 500 reviews here !)
• Free cancellation: Yes 

We had so much fun on this catamaran tour ! We had already explored Manuel Antonio on foot, but seeing the park’s gorgeous coastline from out on the water was just as incredible. We were so excited when we spotted dolphins and sea turtles from the boat, and it’s also possible to spot whales here, which is one advantage of visiting during the off-season. 

We also loved the snorkeling session at Biesanz Beach, because we got to see tons of tropical species like puffer fish. It was like a rainbow down there! The crew was on hand to help anyone who wasn’t a confident swimmer, and the gear was in good condition.

The on-board lunch was really tasty, too. We got fresh fish, which we both really enjoyed. And of course, the open bar didn’t hurt at all! 

Having said that, we still think that this tour is the best choice for families looking to do a catamaran cruise in Manuel Antonio, as well as those just looking to relax. It’s definitely less party-orientated than other tours we have done. 

We did this tour in the afternoon, so we got to round off our day with an epic sunset. We’d highly recommend doing the same, if you can, as it was the perfect end to an amazing day. And if you’re thinking of doing this tour in the high season, make sure to book in advance!

2. All-Inclusive Half-Day Catamaran Tour 

• Price: $83 USD 
• Duration: 3-4 hours 
• Highlights: Snorkeling, spotting marine life, coastal views 
• Inclusions: Buffet lunch, snorkeling equipment, fruit juice, cocktails, hotel pickup and drop-off
• Rating: 4.5 Stars ( Check 300+ reviews here )

This all-inclusive catamaran tour is our top pick for budget travelers. It’s the cheapest one on our list but still has pretty generous inclusions. I mean, what’s not to like about a buffet lunch and open bar?

We loved the lively atmosphere on board the boat. The music was upbeat, the crew had fun, and our fellow travelers were all in high spirits, so it was a good party atmosphere overall!

We saw dolphins and whales, which was amazing and got to go snorkeling, too. When we spotted the dolphins in the distance, the captain actually took us closer so that we could all get a better look! 

The lunch was really tasty, too. We ate tons of fish and pasta, which was needed to soak up all of the cocktails we had. However, we also thought that the vegetarian option looked good, too. 

We would recommend doing this tour in the morning during the rainy season to get the best weather. However, if you’re visiting during the dry season, then we suggest going in the afternoon, as this is a surefire way to catch an epic sunset.

Book in advance here as this tour tends to sell out thanks to its competitive price!

3. Manuel Antonio Catamaran Tour

• Price: $86 USD 
• Duration: 3.5 hours 
• Time: 9 am or 2 pm (dry season only)
• Highlights: Snorkeling, dolphin watching, water slides, jacuzzis on board 
• Inclusions: Lunch, snacks, 4 alcoholic drinks, snorkeling equipment, hotel pickup and drop-off

• Free cancelation: Yes 

Those who want to party should go on this catamaran tour ! We had an absolute blast and spent the day sipping cocktails, jumping into the water, and soaking in the onboard hot tubs. 

Oh yes – we were super impressed by this bougie boat! In addition to the tubs, there were also water slides and tanning meshes on board. Basically, this tour is the ideal choice for groups of friends looking for a fun day out. We met lots of new people and even ended up dancing after the cocktails took hold! 

But let’s not forget about the natural beauty, either. We loved taking in the views of Manuel Antonio as we sunned ourselves on the tanning meshes (which are also great for Instagram photos, just FYI) and we spotted lots of dolphins. The snorkeling portion of the tour was fun, too, and we really appreciated the fresh, local lunch that we were served.

All in all, this is a very memorable way to see Manuel Antonio! It’s a lively tour, and it’s the perfect combination of relaxation and adventure. We have to give a big shout-out to the crew, as well, because they really couldn’t have been more friendly or helpful. Basically, if you’re looking for a fun time out on the water, don’t hesitate to book this tour!

Other Must-Do Activities While You’re in Manuel Antonio

Once you arrive in Manuel Antonio, there’s so much to see and do! You can check out our full guide on Manuel Antonio or browse our favorite activities below!

• Visit the National Park – Of course, you’ll want to see Manuel Antonio National Park! It’s easy to hike through on your own, but we find it’s nice to have a guide – especially to help you spot wildlife.  This specific tour is only $30 USD and includes a 2-hour guided walk through the park. After the tour, you’re free to enjoy the beaches and relax.
• Coffee and chocolate tour – Coffee and chocolate are two of my favorite things. So, it should come as no surprise I just had to join this top-rated coffee and chocolate tour in Manuel Antonio ! The tour teaches you about the historical importance of cacao as well as the entire process of making chocolate. It’s a fantastic experience!
• Ziplining – Did you know that Manuel Antonio is home to the longest twin zipline in Costa Rica? Well, on this ziplining tour , you’ll get to zoom through the treetops on a huge tandem zipline! You can race with your friends and enjoy the experience together!
• ATVing – This ATV tour is so much fun and takes you into the jungle to explore at high speed and then refresh in a natural waterfall. You’ll get wet and dirty, but have a fantastic time! A traditional Costa Rica lunch is also included.

Where to Stay in Manuel Antonio, Costa Rica

There are tons of different hotels to choose from when deciding where to stay in Manuel Antonio . Here are a few of our favorites for all budgets:

Parador Resort and Spa – $$$

Those who enjoy staying in a beautiful hotel and don’t mind paying for it, have to check out Parador Resort and Spa . This place does tick a lot of boxes! It’s only a short walk to the beach, has fantastic panoramic views thanks to its elevated location, and has two infinity pools.

The hotel is surrounded by rainforest, so there’s tons of wildlife around too. It’s more around the $350 USD+ per night mark, but is great for a luxury getaway! You can check availability and book online here .

Hotel Villas Lirio – $$

For the medium-budget traveler, my top choice is  Hotel Villas Lirio (pictured above). This gorgeous hotel is reasonably priced but has some very luxurious features such as an outdoor pool, tropical manicured gardens, an included breakfast, and a restaurant. 

The hotel is also located in the heart of Manuel Antonio and is only meters from the main road where the bus down to the beach and national park goes (it’s a 1-minute drive or a short walk). Be sure to book it in advance as it is often fully booked. You can book Hotel Villas Lirio here .

Selina – $

One of the best budget-friendly places to stay in Manuel Antonio is  Selina . Selina has hostels all over Costa Rica and the world. They always offer an ideal place to stay with clean rooms, a great bar, and a social atmosphere. In Manuel Antonio, Selina is no different, and the hostel comes with a huge pool, restaurant and bar, private rooms, and dorm rooms. 

Rates begin at $57 USD per night. You can  book Selina here on Hostelworld or  here on Booking.com .

Getting Around Costa Rica

How you choose to get around Costa Rica is one of the biggest decisions you’ll make when planning your holiday here! How you do it depends on your budget, travel style, and comfort level. 

Renting a Car

Without a doubt, the number one way to explore Costa Rica is in a rental car. We book rental cars on the Discover Cars website as we have had good experiences with them in the past.

One of the things you need to watch for when renting a car in Costa Rica is the mandatory insurance that the government requires you to have. There are a lot of very cheap rentals that don’t include this mandatory insurance (TPL) in the original booking price, but there are also ones that do. To avoid additional surprise charges when you pick up your rental car, be sure to rent a car that includes the mandatory insurance when you book.

Thankfully, on Discover Cars it’s easy to tell apart the companies that include the mandatory insurance and those that don’t. The trick is you can’t pick any car on their website. In the picture below, you can see this rental car, with pick up in Jaco, includes the TPL. That means the mandatory insurance is included in the price. Any cover you get above that is extra.

Of course, I still suggest getting the full coverage offered by Discover Cars, which covers you even more.

You can  browse cars on Discover Cars here .

Book Shuttles

If renting a car isn’t in your budget, you don’t feel comfortable driving in Costa Rica , or you just don’t like driving, shuttles are the next best option. There are hundreds of shuttle routes available all over the country, and they are very affordable.

Shuttles in Costa Rica are specifically for tourists and often include pick up and drop off at your selected hotels and airports. The drivers also speak some English, and the vehicles have air conditioning. You’ll also be guaranteed a seat when you book a shuttle (which isn’t the case with the public bus system.)

To get the best price, use the website  Bookaway . They compare all the offers and prices of shuttle companies in Costa Rica so you get the best price! Honestly, we have saved so much money using Bookaway! 

You can search for shuttles online on Bookaway here.

Lastly, you can use the public bus system. On short journeys, such as from San Jose to La Fortuna or Uvita to Manuel Antonio, this system is great. However, the longer the journey the more hassle and time spent on a bus. It’s undoubtedly best to save the public bus in Costa Rica for short and straightforward trips!  

The public buses are definitely the cheapest way to get around Costa Rica, but they are not always very reliable and schedules often change without notice and delays are to be expected. The buses can also be very crowded and hot – so just be prepared!

It’s also good to speak some Spanish if you plan on riding the public bus since most drivers and ticket booth operators don’t speak English.

Don’t Forget Travel Insurance!

If you’re looking to save money on travel insurance, we currently use and recommend  SafetyWing . We’ve been using their coverage since 2018 and they’ve had our backs when we needed emergency flights and got sick overseas.

SafetyWing is one of the cheapest providers out there and covers everything from medical costs to lost luggage, travel delays, and emergency flights. A huge difference we’ve found between them and other companies is that they let you take out a policy AFTER leaving your home country. We’ve also found it handy that it’s a monthly payment rather than a lump sum, and you can get a refund for unused time.

SafetyWing has helped us out in some scary situations before and their affordable coverage has given us peace of mind.

Book your travel insurance with SafetyWing here!

I hope our list helped you pick out a catamaran tour to take in Manuel Antonio. The scenery along the coast is gorgeous and it doesn’t hurt that these tours also include extras like snorkeling, drinks, and lunch. Getting out on the water is one of the best parts of vacationing in Costa Rica, so what are you waiting for?

A description of the catamaran tour

By now you are probably wondering the details of the catamaran coastal cruise in Manuel Antonio, Costa Rica.   The first part is by picking you up at your Hotel or Villa.   Afterwards, you are brought down to the Marina Pez Vela where you will be greeted by the staff of the catamaran tour who will take you to the boat.   Once you are aboard, you will receive a short safety instruction by your guide.    

The cruise will start by visiting the beaches of the Manuel Antonio National Park.   The crew on the boat will then go searching for dolphins and other marine life.   Typically this can be noticed by flying birds as they represent a signal of activity underwater.   Once you have had the opportunity to see marine life, you will then go snorkeling in a nearby reef.   This reef provides a wonderful variety of small reef fish for you to see.   You don`t have to worry about brining your own snorkeling equipment, as this is provided for you during the catamaran tour.    

Some people decide to stay near the boat because it has a waterslide and when the boat is stopped, you can take advantage of the waterslide on the back to slide into the pacific ocean. 

When you are done snorkeling, it will be time to serve you the complete meal provided during the cruise.   This meal is rice, fish and vegetables.   Everything is prepared fresh on the boat during the cruise, so nothing is frozen.   There is a chef on the boat who is responsible for preparing the meal for you. 

The beautiful coast of Manuel Antonio is sure to cause a great first impression.   The catamaran tour gives you a great view of the entire coast of Manuel Antonio, one that you can´t get from other activities.   This is a great tour to enjoy being out at sea and a fantastic way of relaxing and take in all of the gorgeous scenery. 

You also have the option of Booking a Private Catamaran Tour

The regular catamaran tour is where you go with other guests on the boat but there is also the option of booking a Private Catamaran Tour if this is something that you are interested in doing, you can send us an email which how many people are in your group and we will get back to you with a quote for the private catamaran cruise.   This is the most exclusive way of cruising around the coast of Manuel Antonio as it would be just you and your group on the boat.    

The boat departs from the Marina Pez Vela

Most of our guests stay in Manuel Antonio which is just 5 minutes away from the Marina Pez Vela in Quepos.   The catamaran boats are docked at the Marina Pez Vela which is about a 7 year old Marina built to make boating easier here in Quepos, Costa Rica. 

The Catamaran Tour is Very Safe

For those who haven`t been cruising on a catamaran boat, let me be the first to say that it is extremely safe.   The entire catamaran tour in Manuel Antonio is always staying close to shore and the boat goes at a very slow speed.   The catamaran boats are also equipped with life jackets and all of the safety equipment.

Manuel Antonio Catamaran Cruise – Ocean King

• Jenn and Matt

25 Comments

Last Updated: June 14, 2024

If you’re visiting Manuel Antonio on your next trip to Costa Rica, you’re no doubt looking forward to spotting wildlife in the national park, doing adventure activities in the nearby mountains, and relaxing on the beach. But a trip to this area wouldn’t be complete without experiencing the Pacific coastline by boat. In this post, we will tell you about our experience on the Ocean King catamaran cruise and how you can enjoy it too.

What to Expect on the Ocean King Catamaran

Setting off.

We started our tour at Marina Pez Vela in Quepos. Although Quepos has more of a city feel and the downtown isn’t very scenic, the marina has amazing facilities. Some of the best restaurants in the area are located here, and the views of the bay, especially at sunset, are outstanding.

After waiting for everyone to arrive, it was time to board the boat.

There are a few different options for cruises out of Manuel Antonio/Quepos. Since our son, Sam, was only one at the time, we felt the most comfortable going on the biggest boat, the Ocean King.

The Ocean King is a 100-foot catamaran with two decks (upper and lower), big open areas to relax, two Jacuzzis, a full bar, bathrooms, and waterslides off the back.

After boarding, we were given a safety talk by the crew and were briefed about what our morning would entail.

First, we would head south to the shores of Manuel Antonio National Park. On the way, we would be looking for whales (seasonal), dolphins, and seabirds.

Next, we’d go to a secluded cove for some snorkeling, swimming, jumping, and water-sliding. And finally, we’d enjoy lunch (or dinner depending on your tour time) on the way back to the marina.

For information on booking this tour, see the end of this post.

A Party on the Water

As the boat left the marina and headed into the ocean, the staff put on some upbeat music, set out fresh fruit and snacks, and opened up the bar. Everyone was allowed two beers and two cocktails each, as well as unlimited juice and soda.

Even though it was still mid-morning, the bar got busy with fruity cocktails being handed out with big smiles.

What You’ll See

The views of the hilly green coastline are amazing from out on the boat.

While on land it seems like there is a lot of development, from the water you can really appreciate how much of Manuel Antonio and Quepos remains engulfed in thick jungle. Adding to the scenery, we passed small rocky islands and local fishing boats too.

Along the way, we saw some seabirds like the Brown Booby and Magnificent Frigatebird. For those of you into birding, these species are considered pelagic. This means that they spend most of their time over the open ocean, with only short periods of rest on tiny islands or drifting wood. Some of them were showing off and got very close to the boat, which was cool for us birding geeks.

The captain and crew were keeping a lookout for dolphins and humpback whales too, but we weren’t lucky enough to see any on our trip.

Dolphins, we were told, can be seen any time of year, but the whales have distinct migration seasons. (Check out our Whale Watching post for more info.) We were at the very start of the December to April migration, which typically has lower numbers of whales. Nonetheless, we had plenty to look at with the islands, birds, and stunning coastline.

It was also interesting to get to see Manuel Antonio National Park from a different angle.

As we motored close to shore, one of the crew members told us a little about the park over the P.A. system. Things like how Manuel Antonio National Park is among the smallest parks in the country but also one of the most visited. He then explained about the diversity of wildlife that can be found inside, both on land and in the adjacent area of protected ocean.

The snorkeling and swimming part of the trip was probably our favorite.

We stopped in a tranquil cove, the secluded Biesanz Beach. Nearby, there was a rock protruding out of the water that attracted a lot of fish. Although Costa Rica isn’t known for having the clearest water for snorkeling, we were surprised that we could see a lot when we got close up.

The swimming was also nice since the water was warm. With the boat parked, the crew opened up the two waterslides off the back and a jumping-off point from the top deck. The slides were a hit with kids and adults alike and really shot you out into the water at the end. The jump from the deck was just scary enough to be fun too. It was about 15 feet high and some of the more adventurous people even dove head first!

Lunch/Dinner

After we dried off from the swim and snorkel portion, lunch was already being served. It was buffet style and we were each given a delicious heaping plate with locally caught fish, rice, vegetables, and salad.

Soon it was time to head back to the marina. We took in the views again and got to talk to some of the other people to see where they were visiting from. The crowd was really mixed, with people of all ages from around the world.

W e loved the morning tour, but are already looking forward to taking the afternoon one next time. The sunset views are supposed to be spectacular!

Additional Info and Tips

Staff and Boat: The staff was very professional, but friendly and fun too. The boat itself was in excellent condition, clean and well maintained. We felt very safe on it.

Rainy Season: Tours are offered twice a day, but during certain times of year when rain is likely later in the day (May through November), they may only run the morning boat.

Music/Environment: The music on the boat makes for a fun, party-like atmosphere, but it is quite loud, so skip this tour if you’re looking for a quiet excursion.

Sun: The upper deck is nice and sunny if you want to work on your tan, but the lower deck is mostly covered if you prefer shade.

Snorkeling: If your main goal is snorkeling, you may be disappointed with this tour. The snorkeling component is only a small portion of the day, as conditions are usually not the best in Manuel Antonio.

Caño Island is a wonderful spot for snorkeling, however, and isn’t too far from Manuel Antonio. Tours to Caño leave out of  Uvita (about 1.25 hrs. south of Manuel Antonio). If you want help booking a tour to Caño, email us at bookings(at)twoweeksincostarica(dot)com.

Kids: The crew took safety very seriously and had more than enough lifejackets for everyone. They had some smaller ones for kids, but nothing small enough for a toddler or baby. If you’re traveling with a little one, we recommend bringing your own lifejacket like we did. We bought this one that goes up to 30 pounds for our one-year old. Also, if you have a toddler, there is a lot of room for them to run around in the middle of the lower deck. This area is surrounded by benches so it is fairly easy to keep track of them too!

What to Bring: The boat has cubbies that close for your valuables, but we recommend bringing only what you need, just to be safe. You’ll probably want your bathing suit, sun hat, sunglasses, towel, sunscreen, extra clothes, camera, and cash for tips or to buy photos.

Photographer: The boat has a professional photographer on board. CDs with your personal pictures and some stock ones are available at the end of the tour for $30 (cash only).
