Great family tour - We appreciate all of the knowledge David our guide had about the land and marine life. We really learned about the culture and animals of the Gulfo Dulce. He and our Capitan were very willing to tailor the tour to what we were interested in. We loved seeing the baby dolphin with her Mom. They really approached the tour from a place of conservation and science which we appreciated.

Great trip! - We had an excellent trip with Juan Eduardo and Arturo. We caught a lot of fish, and saw a ton of animals, birds and fish. The captain and mate were extremely nice and knowledgeable about the gulf and fishing. We would definitely recommend this tour!!

Golfo dulce tour - We did a Golfo tour out of Playa Blanca in La Palma, north of Jiménez. It was a great location to depart from because you spend most of your time on the boat tour in the north part of the Golfo anyways. It’s a beautiful area. The captain and guide were friendly and helpful and overall we had a really great time touring the area and swimming. It was great.

Great Tour, Flexible Company - Catered to our needs exactly! We had a tight timeframe and budget but they were able to take us to snorkel! Saw dolphins on the way and one turtle. Gave us fruit as a snack on the beach and talked with the guides. Recommend this company as it is very personal

Very nice experience - This activity was a wonderful memory, we were able to see many marine animals (rays, dolphins, turtles, tuna, different fish) accompanied by numerous explanations on the local fauna and flora in English. We dove to observe the corals and some fish.
Great fresh fruit snack on a black sand beach. I recommend !

Great experience - Incredible experience. Very good snorkeling equipment, good boat and, above all, a very good guide and captain. The latter always had a very good disposition and were very attentive and friendly, always with a good story to tell. Very friendly and very knowledgeable about the place and its surroundings.
We were able to see turtles, dolphins, manta rays and many fish. The places they took us to were truly incredible.
They had fresh fruit and plenty of cold water for us.
Highly recommended.

Beware - We had a great time, until we discovered the captain had stolen $175 from us. When we went on the boat, we had $800, when we went to lay him, we only had $625. The only time our money and bags were not attended were when we were snorkeling when he was the only on the boat and drove it far away from us. This tour was fun, but was definitely a budget option. We caught 4 fish and snorkeled.
