Snorkelling, banana boat, nature hike

The catamaran leaves from Los Sueños marina in Herradura, ten minutes north of Jacó, and crosses the Gulf of Nicoya to Tortuga Island — turtle island.

It is a full day and the food is part of it: a light breakfast on the way out, drinks aboard, a cooked lunch on the island, rum punch and margaritas after. On the island there is snorkelling, a banana boat and a nature hike, or the beach if none of that appeals. Pickup from Playa Hermosa is $10 per person, added at booking.

  • The island beach seen from the water: palms, umbrellas and swimmers along the sand.
  • A snorkeller in mask and snorkel surfacing beside the boat in green water.
  • Guests sitting along the foredeck cushions in the shade, the gulf flat behind them.
  • A guest on the side deck watching the coastline go past as the boat crosses the gulf.
