My wife and I had an unforgettable time on this Catamaran excursion! Everything was so well organized from start to finish. The food was absolutely amazing, and the staff were beyond friendly — you can tell they truly love what they do and care about making every guest’s experience special.
The ride itself was fun and engaging, with great music and fascinating information about dolphins, birds, and whales. Snorkeling was a blast, and swimming in the ocean was such a highlight. The slide from the Catamaran into the water and the floating mat to relax on were unique touches that made the day even better.
We would definitely do this excursion again with the same incredible staff, and we highly recommend it to anyone looking for a fun, memorable adventure on the water!

We truly appreciate your recommendation and hope to welcome you back soon!
It was a great tour! Everyone on the boat was absolutely wonderful and was very attentive. My friends and I got sea sick just because the waves were kinda rough but even that couldn’t ruin our time! Truly recommend booking! Definitely an experience you don’t want to miss. BUT if you do get seasick, I give you fair warning and book at your own risk lol!
Response from Host, Sep 2026
Thank you for your wonderful feedback! We’re delighted that you enjoyed the tour and appreciated our attentive crew. We’re sorry to hear that the waves caused some seasickness, but we’re glad it didn’t prevent you from having a great time! Thank you for the recommendation—we hope to welcome you again soon!
We got to see a school of dolphins. They swam alongside us and we circled around a couple of times. It was magical. Snorkeling was a bit cloudy, so we didn't see a lot, but it was nice just floating out there.

Thank you for sharing your experience with us!
Seeing a school of dolphins swimming alongside the boat truly is a magical moment, and we’re so happy you got to enjoy it.
We appreciate your honest feedback about the snorkeling conditions—visibility can sometimes vary depending on the weather and ocean conditions, but we’re glad you still enjoyed the peaceful experience of being in the water.
We hope to have the pleasure of welcoming you again for another unforgettable adventure!
Good vessel, good drinks, good food, good time. Fun stop for snorkeling, conditions a little challenging to see wildlife but staff made it worth it.

This is exactly the kind of day we love to hear about! Friendly crew, good food, the waterslide, snorkeling — sounds like you checked every box.
So glad you had an incredible time and hope to have you back on board soon!
Excellent, professional and prompt service! Snorkeling location could be enhanced however viewing the humpback family of whales was amazing!

Everything about this trip was fantastic. The staff were all professional, warm, and amazing hosts. There were great drinks, delicious food, fun music, and beautiful scenery. We even saw a Humpback whale and her baby even though it was out of season! Allan in particular was fantastic!

The cruise was absolutely amazing. Communication about a pickup point was easy and convenient for us. We chose the sunset tour and were pleasantly surprised that there is virtually unlimited cocktails aboard as well as what seemed to be endless pineapple and watermelon. We cruised along the coast and then anchored nearby Manuel Antonio beach where our tour guide brought us snorkelling with some fish food and we were surrounded with all kinds of beautiful fish. We then had lots of time to swim, jump off the boat and do water activities followed by a delicious casado dinner cooked by our captain. What made this tour 100/10 was that on our ride back during the sunset our tour guide and captain spotted a pod of dolphins and we cruised behind them while they danced and sang for us for virtually 20 mins. It was as if the dopphins were being paid for our entertainment. Truly magical- cannot recommend the sunset tour enough. Worth the money! Choose Iguana tours for your activities if not booking with Viator!

Cannot say enough good things about this excursion and its crew. The captain was amazing. He sailed out and found a humpback whale with its baby. He got us close enough to take pics and still be at a safe distance. The kids had a blast on the slide and jumping off the top platform. The provided a delicious lunch at the end with a local dish of chicken, rice and beans. Highly recommend

The atmosphere was fun and the crew was very friendly and fun. The music was enjoyable and provided a party atmosphere. The snorkeling, unfortunately was cloudy and we did not get to see very many fish or a very big variety. The ride back was a bit hot. The food was great. The other patrons were rude on the way home and confrontational.

The perfect way to end an adventurous Costa Rica vacation. It was a smooth relaxing ride around the bay, with some drinks and music. We spotted a few sea turtles along the way. Then a nice refreshing dip, before freshly grilled fish dinner. Our guide super enjoys his job and was fun and knowledgeable. The return was fun as he handed our instruments and made all of us part of a “concert.” It was a total vibe and I would recommend. It was the perfect way to wind down and get ready to go back home.

Unlimited fruit and fruit juice. I fished while traveling to the snorkeling location. The steward was very friendly and engaging. An excellent trip.
This was a wonderful relaxing cruise to see the natural beauty of the coast. Warm, friendly people and good food and drink! Thomas is really special.
Fun attentive crew, large comfortable clean boat with great viewing locations. Blaring music detracted from the experience. Excellent views of the coast. Snorkeling was mediocre and a bit rushed. Good lunch with fresh fruit.
We had a fantastic sunset cruise! Group of 7 family members including my 81 year old parents. Everyone felt included and had a great time. The pictures taken by staff are incredible! Thomas was fun and entertaining.
Meal was very tasty as well.
thank you all!
Thomas and his crew were amazing! We were even able to see dolphins on the trip and they searched until they found them. Thank you! I know it wasn’t guaranteed. The dinner was wonderful and even the 2 10 year old boys enjoyed it. The photographer Alejandro was wonderful at capturing the moments.
Thank you all again!
It was wonderful, the attention we had was like being at home, super attentive, fun and very nice. It was a very pleasant tour and on the way back we were taken to see dolphins which was a pass. In short, I recommend

¡Muchísimas gracias por compartir su experiencia!
Nos alegra enormemente saber que se sintieron como en casa y que disfrutaron de un ambiente atento, divertido y agradable durante todo el tour.
Qué bonito saber que el encuentro con los delfines hizo aún más especial el regreso—sin duda es un momento inolvidable.
Agradecemos mucho su recomendación y esperamos tener el gusto de recibirlos nuevamente en Costa Rica para otra experiencia increíble.
Foi uma experiência extraordinária! O mar estava tranquilo e o tempo extremamente agradável! A equipe foi atenciosa desde a retirada no hotel até o encerramento do tour! Consegui ver as baleias de perto e elas proporcionaram um espetáculo! O snorkel e o almoço delicioso fecharam a experiência com chave de ouro!
