Paddle boarding, kayak and fishing

We also include paddle boards, kayaks and fishing ( trolling ) as well as other optional toys, like floating mats, noodles and sometimes trampoline.

Set sail from the charming seaside village of Las Catalinas aboard your very own private catamaran or luxury yacht, and discover Guanacaste’s wild beauty in style. As you slip away from the marina, the Pacific breeze fills the sails and instantly transports you into vacation mode.

Your adventure begins with a stop at a secluded, powder-white beach—accessible only by boat—where soft sands meet emerald jungle and the only footprints are your own. Lounge beneath swaying palms with a chilled tropical cocktail from our open bar while the crew lays out a spread of chef-prepared ceviche, fresh ceviche tostadas, and seasonal fruit platters.

Next, explore hidden coves and secret bays by paddle board or kayak, skirting dramatic basalt cliffs and mangrove-fringed inlets. Slip beneath the surface for snorkeling among thriving coral gardens, where parrotfish and angelfish dance amid swaying sea fans. Anglers aboard can cast off from the rail, chasing snapper and roosterfish as pelicans dive overhead.

Back on deck, savor a gourmet lunch of grilled local catch and crisp salads before raising the sails once more for your afternoon leg. Whether you choose to drift on a paddle board beneath a golden sunset or simply recline on cushioned nets, every moment is yours to own.

As the horizon ignites in coral and gold, return to Las Catalinas with salt-kissed skin, sun-warmed memories, and the perfect blend of adventure, luxury, and untouched coastal paradise.

Excellent Sailing charter. From the beginning of approaching the company, the service was outstanding. We went through several options of sailboats and catamarans in order to find the perfect boat for our group, and the advice received was great. The tour was equally outstanding. The service from Luis was amazing, dedicated all the way. We also received some delicious menu items, beyond what was actually offered. Thanks for showing us the real Guanacaste.

The best advice and the selection of boats is very profesional. I loved the fact that the company runs 4 catamarans, al of them great. The charter was perfect. Great sailing crew, excellent onboard service, food and the drinks and service in general fantastic. The snorkeling gear is first quality. Very good and a statement to the service of this country. We even got to see a sea turtle. Tartuga Lora.

We booked the afternoon tour because we wanted to see the sunset. After 2 hours of sailing, BLAM, rain, not a heavy rain, but hey, you can't control the weather today. Even so, with everything and rain it was a very fun tour. And as planned, at the end of the tour, it stopped raining and we could see the wonderful colors of these incredible sunsets as we sailed towards the hotel.

Great day trip, awesome food. The full day trip to Playa Guacascolito was just perfect. Food was superb, fresh fish. Loved the fact that it was really very secluded, we were not used to that but that was an experience beyond what we have ever had before. Just us, nature and service.

I loved this combination, confort and pampering service and ameniies with the feeling of adventure and expeditions. Superb Destinatio Unknown and Zafira and Puar Vida, best catamrans we have sailed with so far in Costa Rica.
