Tamarindo: Snorkel and Sunset Catamaran Cruise with Lunch, Drinks
Excellent tour.
Wonderful afternoon cruise. Enjoyed snorkeling, water slide and spending time on the water. Food and drinks were also excellent. All staff were great!

A highlight of our two week Costa Rica trip!
We booked this estuary boat tour last minute and we were so glad we did! Wr were impressed by the experience, and all of the staff we interacted with at Tamarindo Xperience. Our guide, Juan Carlos, is incredibly knowledgeable about the animals and plants you see during your tour, and the estuary is absolutely beautiful. We had incredible crocodile sightings, along with bats, birds and monkeys. I also recommend taking the earliest time available. This was incredibly family friendly, and the water was calm as you slowly drift in the mangroves.

CR Tamarindo Catamaran Tour – Sunset Cruise, Open Bar & Snorkel
Good but be cautious
Great sailing and the staff was very accommodating and helpful. The only issue we had was we booked a sunset cruise which was accepted. They called back and said they are doing scheduled maintenance during the time we had scheduled. We found out later that there was no maintenance on the boat and the sunset sail was still going on. Not sure what kind of games we being played but did not appreciate it. Forced us to get up at 5am to make the 7:45 meeting time.
