Our freshly prepared food is designed to satisfy everyone, including vegetarians and vegans. Our signature drink, the Blue Dolphin Especial, is a tropical taste of paradise.

We are down here for an intimate family wedding and the boat accommodated our entire group. The crew were exceptional, and the food and drink was great. The snorkeling, swimming and scenery. We’re extraordinary. Highly recommend. Great to book if your family group is large enough.

So much fun. Jonathan & Chuti (hope I’m spelling this correctly) were perfect hosts & made us feel at home. Super relaxing & lots of water toys. The best (geriatric) party boat outing this group of 50-year-old women could hope for. Highly recommend. 🔥❤️🌊🍍

Fantastic Private Afternoon Sail
The management handled all our pre-tour requests and questions promptly, coordination was flawless, and crew was outstanding. We plan to go back to Costa Rica regularly and will definitely plan to do the tour again. Great group to work with.
