      We had a great afternoon, kayaking and snorkeling. Our guide, Alex, was very nice and helpful. This was our first time to do ocean kayaking and snorkeling, but everything went really well. The view of Quepos coastal line was beautiful! The meal at the end of the tour was delicious!

      Incredible experience

      Michelle_O, Apr 2025
      My two children age 7 and 12 had an amazing experience with Raul as our guide. The water was beautiful and so warm. Raul was very patient and kind. He expertly navigated us to an area where we snorkeled and saw some lovely bright yellow fish and Raul found some starfish to show us. Then he took us to a beautiful beach where we gave us a lovely snack of pineapple and coconut cookies—taste like a pina colada he said and he was correct! It was an island paradise. My children enjoyed the sea while I had an interesting chat with Raul. We highly recommend the tour and Raul he was fantastic. This was a memory that will last a lifetime!

      We saw stunning cliffs, colorful fish, a sea star, frigate birds and more. The water was fairly calm. Raul was an excellent guide and very nice guy. The lunch was great. Highly recommend it!

      Fun kayaking and snorkeling

      Katie_A, Feb 2025
      We enjoyed kayaking and then snorkeling with Raul and Alex. Although we didn’t get to see as much wildlife as we wished, it was still an enjoyable experience. Sometimes that is just how it works out with nature, so nothing against Raul or the tour company. The lunch as the end was also good. The pick up and drop off made accessing this experience very easy.

      Kayak, snorkel, lunch - amazing!

      LAURA_E, Jan 2025
      The activity ran like a well-oiled machine. Raul V and his team were excellent and I felt in safe hands. A quick talk and we were swiftly in the water. I’d never snorkelled so this was a dream for me! The snacks on the beach we stopped off at was a lovely touch. Then a classic CR lunch at a restaurant in Quepos before heading home. Highly recommend!
