Eddie Bioluminescent Tour is the best…don’t trust this magical experience to anyone else…GO WITH EDDIE!
Eddie was so knowledgeable and made our boat ride an experience to remember. I have never seen something so beautiful and fanciful as glowing water. We even swam in it. It was so magical to see our bodies light up like stars in a dark sky. I don’t think you would have the same fascinating and personal experience that we had with Eddie with a regular tour group. He made it extra special and a memory that I will never forget. It truly was a once in a lifetime moment. You truly exceeded all my expectations and more. Thank you Eddie…you are truly the best!

Omg! we had the best...
OMG! We had the BEST time! It was definitely worth the money, food was delicious, our guide Juan was AMAZING and we thoroughly enjoyed each part of the day. We swam, hung out on the beach, saw spider moneys and snorkeled (and got to see lots of fish, a shark, sea stars, sea urchins and an octopus)! Loved every bit of it!!!

Pura Vida Snorkeling and Beach
Communication before the trip was excellent. We met on the beach by El Gecko’s meeting point. Directions were accurate. Then we took a very enjoyable, scenic boat ride to the snorkeling location. Snorkeling was very nice. plenty of fish to make the 45 minute experience worth it. There were only 7 of use and it was quite lovely to be in such a small group. Maybe 30 minutes after we had arrived a very large group of snorkelers (maybe 20 or 30) descended upon us and I was glad we at least had 30 minutes to ourselves. After, the guides took us to an isolated, quiet beach and served us delicious fruit. But wait - that wasn’t all. I totally did t expect the lunch that came 1 hour later. Which came with home-made salsa that was truly yummy! We had the beach to ourselves for about 3 hours and besides getting in another swim we saw reptiles, monkeys and deer. It was the perfect, Puta Vida day.

Pure Magic
This was nothing short of magical, and one of the highlights of our trip to Costa Rica. Our guide was very knowledgeable and personable. The spray of diamonds in the water anytime anything moved - it was like Disney animation come to life. And if that weren't enough, the billions of stars above in this rural area of CR was a show in and of itself. Our guide also pointed out many different stars and planets and constellations, too. Absolutely wonderful experience. 100% recommended. Do yourself a favor and make this part of your Costa Rican experience.

things_to_do

Once a small village with no stoplights, Santa Teresa, Costa Rica, is a bustling beach town filled with surfers, yogis, and plenty of friendly Tico guides specializing in Santa Teresa tours. Embark a boat cruise to Tortuga Island on a Monday, kayak after dark through the Nicoya Peninsula’s glowing algae on a Tuesday, and wrap things up with learning how to surf on a Wednesday. Expert guides can also take you deep-sea fishing on the Pacific or horseback riding on sand so soft you’ll want to take it home. But don’t—memories and photos make for the best Santa Teresa souvenirs.
