    Great Experience

    Stacey_B, May 2026
    This was a great experience. The boat had plenty of room. It was covered for people who didn't want to be in the sun all day. The food was excellent. The atmosphere was very friendly. We loved the music and people were dancing and having a good time. We got to see dolphins up close and the snorkeling was good. The snorkeling could have been better but it was cloudy and sometimes hard to see. There was a lot of swimming in order to keep up with our guide which was hard at times. We had a blast though and I would recommend it again!

    Wonderful to excursion!

    Michele_S, Apr 2026
    We had an amazing experience! The crew, ship, and food and drinks were outstanding ! All of the teens and adults had a great time, and a beautiful sunset was the perfect ending ! Highly recommend!

    Floating party but not a snorkeling trip

    MaryKate_A, Apr 2026
    We booked this in hopes of experiencing new snorkeling destinations by boat. We were disappointed to find it was primarily a floating party with very loud music the whole 4 hours and the brief stop for snorkeling was in deep murky water with a red life vest around our waists so nothing to see. The food was decent and the staff were nice, and the slide was fun it’s just not why we booked the tour.

    Response from Host, Apr 2026

    Thank you for your feedback. Our experience is designed as a full ocean adventure, not just a snorkeling tour. It includes cruising along the coastline, searching for marine wildlife, swimming, music, food, and drinks—so snorkeling is only one part of the overall experience. Snorkeling conditions can vary day to day, as visibility is completely controlled by Mother Nature and factors like tides, wind, and currents. Some days offer clearer water than others, and unfortunately that is outside of our control. Regarding the life vest, for safety reasons we do require guests to take one with them in the water, but it does not need to be worn if you don't want, only carried and returned after use. Pura Vida!

    Highly recommend, one of my favorite things we did while in Costa Rica. Pura Vida. 🤙🏼

    Stefanie_D, Apr 2026
    I highly recommend this tour. My son is 8 and I’m 42. We had an excellent experience and highly recommend it. I would absolutely do it again without question. It was such a vibe. The crew is so friendly and fun. They are so welcoming and accommodating. The food was outstanding, so much better than resort food. There were people of all ages. Even babies onboard. Come as you are, bring a towel if you wish. We went in April and it was warm and sunny. We only got to see fish. But it was still worth the boat ride.

    Fun afternoon on the water.

    Erika_L, Mar 2026
    Relaxing, fun time on the water. Guided snorkeling, floating/swimming, dolphin spotting and a lovely sunset if you do the afternoon cruise. Tropical beverages (with or without alcohol).

    Response from Host, Apr 2026

    We’re so glad you enjoyed the relaxing vibe, snorkeling, dolphin spotting, and sunset—sounds like the perfect afternoon on the water! Hope to have you back on board again soon! ☀️

    Amy_B, Mar 2026
    They made this experience so fun! Family of 5 and we had an absolute blast! The slide was a huge hit and would highly recommend. It didn’t feel crowded and the whole crew made this experience very memorable. Highly recommend and wish we could go again!

    Response from Host, Apr 2026

    We’re so happy your family had such a great time and that the slide was a big hit! It means a lot to hear the crew made it a memorable experience. Pura Vida!

    Super fun afternoon at sea. The staff was wonderful from beginning to end, the food was delicious, and the whole experience was enjoyable.

    Amazing catamaran ride! Perfect excursion!!!

    Simon_C, Mar 2026
    Overall this excursion was exactly as advertised! I've been on some misleading adventures before, so it was refreshing to have this excursion check all the boxes! The crew were amazing! The drinks, music playlist and food were all perfect for the atmosphere! We were lucky enough to spot dolphins and the crew took their time to track them and make sure everyone had multiple sightings! The slide was fast and the jumping platform was high! I loved it, my Boys' (4 and 6) loved watching me use them! Just a little too crazy for them haha. The swimming session was amazing! My 6 year old was actually stung by a tiny jellyfish which no one even noticed. It wasn't until a crew member heard him complaining of a hurt neck that it was figured out! He promptly got some vinegar, sprayed it on his neck and it felt better instantly! Thank you! I can't remember the names of the crew, I just know there were 2 Diegos! They were all fantastic! They kept the energy high and the vibes strong! It was absolutely perfect in every way, including the Flamingo Marina being very clean and having great washroom access. The catamaran actually had a couple of urinals and toilets which is great compared to others I've been on in the past! Keep up the great work!

    Great time on Catamaran Adventure

    Danielle_S, Mar 2026
    We had the BEST time on the Flamingo, Guanacaste All-Inclusive Catamaran Snorkel Adventure! 🌊☀️ From start to finish, everything was incredible. The food and drinks were delicious and plentiful, the entertainment kept the energy fun and upbeat, and the water slide + swimming stops were an absolute highlight—so much fun! What really made the experience special was the crew. Every single staff member was friendly, attentive, and went above and beyond—helping take photos of us with the amazing sunset also making sure everyone was having a great time. They even surprised me by singing Happy Birthday, which made the day feel extra memorable and personal. 🎉 Highly recommend this excursion if you’re in Guanacaste—it was one of the highlights of our trip!

    Not a snorkel adventure

    Susan_G, Mar 2026
    Not a snorkeling adventure. Fun trip but where we landed no matter if the water was clear or not , there would be no fish. Wish these companies would just book trips like this as a water adventure. They gave no one instructions on the equipment. Just threw them in the water and told us where not to go. All it would have been is to snorkel from boat to beach.

    Response from Host, Mar 2026

    Hi, Thank you for your feedback, we truly appreciate you taking the time to share your experience. We would like to clarify a few important points. During our tours, a guide always accompanies guests in the water to assist and ensure safety while snorkeling. Additionally, our tour is described as a full ocean adventure experience, which includes snorkeling, food, drinks, music, and time to enjoy the coastline—not solely a dedicated snorkeling tour. Prior to the tour, all guests are required to sign a waiver that clearly states that water conditions, including visibility and marine life presence, are completely dependent on Mother Nature and are beyond our control. That said, we are sorry to hear that this part of your experience did not meet your expectations. Pura Vida!

    Super fun time!

    Carrie_M, Mar 2026
    You will have fun on this excursion! Food was really good and fresh! Bar was wonderful! There are bathrooms for changing. Saw a whale and her baby!

    Snorkeling Trip

    Warren_G, Mar 2026
    We had a very good time. It was a very windy day so the snorkeling part was very brief. There should have been two staff in the water with the swimmers and not just one for safety. The experience was more party boat and less adventure.

    A couple memories lost, more created!

    Deanna_S, Mar 2026
    The water was a bit rough so they recommended not to snorkel but it was an option. Everyone still had a good time jumping off the top and sliding down the slide. The crew did a great job at keeping everyone entertained! Food was excellent and the people we met were awesome! Even though we lost our GoPro, still a great tour!

    Costa Rica Snorkel

    Andrea_F, Mar 2026
    Wonderful experience. Snorkeling was just ok, saw a few fish but not much else. The time on the boat was fun, food was delish and they stopped so we could see the sunset which was beautiful. The crew were all nice and hospitable, highly recommend.

    Fun activity with swimming/snorkling and a beautiful sunset

    Sandy_C, Mar 2026
    Amazing day! The crew was fantastic and the food was super delicious! Our two college aged daughters absolutely loved all the water activities!

    The best part of our vacation

    Lynn_K, Mar 2026
    A fun filled afternoon filled with snorkeling, swimming, dancing, and taking beautiful photos. I would definitely recommend this excursion. The staff were very friendly and promoted the best time!

    Beautiful sunset & wildlife experience

    Julie_C, Mar 2026
    For the most part we had a really good time. However, I was pretty disappointed that they don't put out a line for you to be able to stay close to the boat while floating. You think you're just relaxing, staying in one spot but look up to realize how far you've floated away from the boat. It was a lot of strenuous work to get back to the boat and then I was so tired I didn't want to jump or slide off. So, my recommendation is at the very least, the crew should make you aware this is an issue and there is a simple solution to just put out a line so you can float but not get taken away by the current. The food was really good and the drinks were OK. Beautiful sunset and saw humpback whales. All in all, a good time and I would recommend.

    Awesome tour. Highly recommend 👌

    Wendy_F, Mar 2026
    Great trip! Staff awesome! Would do it again. Highly recommend to everyone. Food & drinks very good.

    It was beautiful, we saw...

    Caroline_A, Mar 2026
    It was beautiful, we saw humpback whales in the distance & the food & staff were excellent. I personally didn't like that many people on one boat & it was more of a "party" atmosphere then I like but I knew both of those things when I booked it.

    It was a very windy day...

    Sharon_B, Feb 2026
    It was a very windy day so not very many people snorkelled. Check the weather forecast before booking your trip. It was a well organized activity.

    Response from Host, Mar 2026

    We completely understand that weather can affect certain activities; however, Mother Nature is something that is simply out of anyone’s control. Wind conditions can vary from day to day, and while we always prioritize safety and comfort, we cannot control the forecast. Leaving a 2-star review due to natural weather conditions feels unfair, especially considering that the tour itself operated as planned and safely. Additionally, even on windier days, we still offer multiple water activities such as our floating bed and the waterslide, which many guests thoroughly enjoy. Snorkeling is always optional, and participation often depends on personal comfort levels. Our crew did everything possible to deliver a safe and enjoyable experience. We truly appreciate your feedback and hope future conditions allow you to experience the tour at its fullest potential. Pura Vida!

    Book this. Now. Seriously. Don’t hesitate.

    Christine_R, Feb 2026
    I can’t say enough about this magical experience that we had. The crew is fantastic on the catamaran. The water was beautiful. They were very helpful in taking photos if we needed to. The food was magnificent. They actually stop the boat so we can catch the sunset. It was truly magical. Do not hesitate to book this experience. It is very family friendly, and they were many smaller children on our trip.

    So much fun, relaxed, and...

    Hilary_M, Feb 2026
    So much fun, relaxed, and unique. The boat crew were amazing, kept things fun but also informative, kept everyone safe, we even saw a humpback whale and baby. Such a great experience.

    Snorkelling catamaran

    Betty_F, Feb 2026
    We all had a fabulous time. The staff were great but particularly the person who led us through our afternoon (sorry I don’t remember his name). He took care of our safety, our hunger, our thirst, and our fun organizing the dancing, the snorkelling and the tsunami slide. The captain was terrific funding dolphins and humped back whales for us to see. I also want to thank all the parents who were on this trip with us. Your children were all so well behaved and each of you looked after your kids amazingly well…it is much appreciated. We would highly recommend this tour and would do it again.
