Sailing in Guanacaste in September

Sailing during the month of September in Guanacaste is a beautiful experience.

September sailing

September is a low season month, which means that there are fewer tourists visiting the area, which in turn means that many sites, including the popular beaches but also remote sites are less visited, and therefore provide a more exclusive and remote atmosphere.

While it is true that rain may fall, especially during the afternoon hours, this does not mean that it will rain every day of the month.

Remember that if you have booked the morning private catamaran tour, it can, weather permitting, be moved to the morning private tour for the following day, which runs from 830 to 1230.

This applies only as an option, in case the tour has to be cancelled due to rain and if the client has the option to move the tour to the next day.

Another advantage of September is that everything is usually greener, including the traditionally dry tropical rainforests of Guanacaste, and there is usually a lot of wildlife sightings.

Watching the spectacle of humpback whales leaping out of the water is a must-see sight, and those who see it will remember it for a lifetime.

Other commonly seen species are dolphins, of various species, such as spinner dolphins, bottlenose dolphins and even the occasional Pacific spotted dolphin.

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.
