Discover the underwater jewel of Costa Rica on this expedition to the Caño Island Biological Reserve, home to the country's most vibrant coral reefs and pristine marine ecosystems! Your adventure launches from Punta Uvita Beach for an exciting 1.5-hour open-ocean voyage where—depending on the season—you may be flanked by migrating whales or playful dolphins before you jump in to snorkel among schools of tropical fish in the crystal-clear water. This tour includes your guide, lunch, and high-quality equipment, with ground transfers taking up to an hour (extra fees apply for pickups in Dominical and Manuel Antonio). Crucial Advisory: This adventure involves a long ride in a small boat across open, often choppy seas where constant movement is inevitable; if you are prone to motion sickness or have no experience with open ocean travel, please consider your participation carefully before booking, as the ride can be intense.
