Discover the beauty of Costa Rica’s underwater world on our Guided Snorkel Tours in Playas del Coco. These boat-based snorkeling trips are perfect for beginners, families, and anyone who wants to explore the ocean without scuba diving.
Snorkel sites are carefully selected based on daily sea conditions to provide the best possible experience. Depending on the season, guests may encounter tropical fish, rays, sea turtles, and other marine life.
Our trained snorkeling guides ensure a safe, relaxed, and enjoyable trip, offering assistance in the water and sharing knowledge about the local marine environment.

Please be aware that during some time of year, jellyfish and plankton may occasionally be present on the surface of the water. Their presence is natural and unpredictable, and some days they may be more noticeable than others. They are not dangerous, but they can sometimes be uncomfortable or irritating.
For your comfort, we strongly recommend bringing a rashguard and leggings for snorkeling. If you prefer, wetsuits are available for rent for an additional $8. You can request one upon arrival at our shop when we prepare your equipment.
