Upon departing Playas del Coco we leisurely sail along the Gold Coast will searching for some of the vast, abundant and varied sea life found along our shores.  Some of the sea life we hope to encounter includes whales, dolphins, turtles, flying fish, rays and a wide variety of sea birds.  If conditions permit we will also throw a few fishing lines off the back in the hopes of hooking into one of the many game fish that ply our waters. Eventually we pull into one of the many secluded bays in the area, throw anchor and allow our passengers the opportunity to swim in the warm Costa Rican waters.  Life vests, pool noodles, snorkel equipment and stand up paddle boards are available should weather conditions permit.  For those passengers not wanting to get wet the catamaran is a great place to relax in the shade of the huge main salon or lounge in the sun on one of the many open deck areas. Following our time playing in the water, a light lunch is served.  Lunch is served at approximately 4:30 pm and includes the following: • BBQ Chicken, • Yellow rice, • Black beans, • Fresh Fruit Plates, • Chips (Doritos, Lay’s,Cheetos and Tostitos),  • Fresh made Pico de Gallo and • Homemade chocolate chip cookies using our Grandmas favorite recipe.
