Tour Information

  • Tour Description

    As the Manuel Antonio specialists, we encourage you to experience one of Costa Rica’s most striking coastlines – in an open-seated ocean kayak. Whether you are an individual, a group, or an adventurous family, this challenging yet gratifying ocean paddling adventure is just what you’re looking for.

    The adventure begins near the Marina Pez Vela in Quepos and winds along the Manuel Antonio coastline. From your position in your kayak, you will have the best view of the mountainous city of Manuel Antonio. Our bilingual nature guide will tell you what you are seeing in the mountains and tell you more about the beautiful treasures there is along the coastline.

    Your guide will also direct you to the best snorkeling spots; a great volcanic rock hosting a wide variety of fish, crabs, and other marine life, very close to the shore of Biezans Bay.

    After snorkeling you will make a stop at a beautiful, secluded beach, where you can rest your arms, enjoy the water and some fruit and cookies that your guide will provide for you. With newfound energy, you are ready to continue enjoying your magical surroundings as you make your way back to shore.

    You will end your adventure with a nice hot typical Costa Rican lunch at a local hot spot near the beach, before returning to your lodging.

    A kayaking trip is a tremendous way to experience the exotic Costa Rican coastline in a way that only Manuel Antonio can show you. This adventure will become an unforgettable memory!
