What are people saying about Tamarindo

Ashley_H, Aug 2026
Super fun!
We had a wonderful time on the catamaran cruise! The snorkeling was great, and the sunset was absolutely beautiful. The food provided was delicious, and we really enjoyed the smaller, more intimate feel of the boat—it felt almost like a fun family outing with the other passengers. The meeting place was also very easy to find. Overall, a fantastic experience we would definitely recommend!

Adventure-filled day!
It’s a full day so bring some snacks and water bottles filled with water. Bring tips for the nature tour guide, the tubing guide and the all-day guide. The tubing can get rough if it has recently rained so the tubes should be clipped to at least one other. We went when it had been dry and my tube still flipped. If it hadn’t been for frebasio who tubed with our party, who knows the river backwards and forwards, I could have gotten badly hurt. He and Allen, our all-day guide, were wonderful. We saw several animals and native trees/plants, the gorgeous waterfall and a very fun time tubing the river with many exciting rapids!

Great Experience
The cruise started a little disorganized trying to figure out where and who to meet up with but once that was figured out it was an amazing 5 hrs with a crew that was personable and fun to be around. It was an excellent experience and I would definitely do it again when I come back. Food was great, and drinks were actually unlimited. We traveled up the coast to a secluded spot where there was a small beach and a nice snorkel spot. We arrived back in port perfectly on time about 15 mins before sunset and watched the sunset from just outside of the bay. Then proceeded to push in and disembark before it got really dark. Couldn’t have asked for a better experience.

Beautiful day at Llanos...
Beautiful day at Llanos de Cortes. We swam in the natural pool surrounding the waterfall. Pleasant temperature. Worth a quick swim and some great photos. Saw Howler monkeys in the trees above. Next we went to the Sloth natural reserve. Saw 3-4 sloths but were treated by one climbing down from his tree to take care of his weekly bathroom run. Also saw lots of other wildlife here. The lunch was amazing with lots of native Costa Rican foods. Toucans played in the trees right by our dining area. Finally we made it to Rio Celeste only in time for it to pour. We did successfully make it to the falls but the water lost its blue color due to all the silt from the rain. The falls did have an impressive amount of water pouring down. As the rain finished up, we headed back down and all the wildlife emerged- a family of Coati, a Capuchin monkey, a Motmot, an anole, walking sticks, etc. We all very much enjoyed the day.
