Quepos Verde Aventura

About this tour

A private cruise on Vuelto Loco along Punta Quepos and Punta Catedral, with a snorkel stop. Dolphins and, in season, humpback whales are often seen.

A private coastal tour on our 45-foot, air-conditioned yacht, with staff on board to look after you. Pick the morning trip or the afternoon sunset trip. It is a private sport fishing boat, so you can sit out on deck in the sun and sea breeze or stay inside in the air-conditioned lounge.

As we run along the coast you can try some fishing while your guide talks about the town of Quepos, the Quepoa indigenous people and the marine wildlife. There is also a snorkel stop with a professional diver.

Humpback whales migrate to the Osa Peninsula, and the best odds of seeing them are from August to October. The full season runs from July to December, so early and late arrivals are possible too. Besides whales and their calves, you may see dolphins, sea turtles and several kinds of seabirds.

Bring a camera. It is a good trip for nature lovers who want a relaxed day on the water and learn something along the way.

Food and drinks are served throughout the tour.
