Snorkel with turtles and schools of fish around Caño Island

Drake Bay, Costa Rica

Snorkel with turtles and schools of fish around Caño Island
Unterwasser: Meeresschildkröte schwimmt, rechts Schnorchler mit Maske nähert sich.

Experience colourful schools of fish and turtles at Caño Island, plus dolphins and relaxed hours on the beach.

Ce que tu peux vivre ici

You set off early in the morning from the beach at Drake Bay and immediately leave everyday life behind. The boat trip to Isla del Caño is an experience in itself, as humpback whales or Stenella often accompany your morning adventure. The protected area is considered one of the best places for underwater encounters on Costa Rica’s Pacific coast.

Around Caño Island a spectacular underwater world awaits: two snorkelling sessions take you to different sections of the reef, where you swim with green sea turtles, rays and colourful schools of fish. Depending on visibility, whitetip reef sharks or manta rays may also glide through the water. Between sessions there are snacks and after snorkelling you cool off on the white sand of San Josecito Beach, before a leisurely lunch rounds off the day.

    Ce que les autres disent de Pacheco Tours

    Overall, travellers experience the tours as well organised and smooth. The guides are considered very experienced, passionate and English-speaking. Many report that they travelled in small groups and, thanks to the attentive guiding, saw numerous animals on land and on the water.

    For most guests the schedule and support fit together very well, but some experience it differently. They describe the start and structure of some excursions as chaotic or not very transparent. They also have the impression that equipment such as snorkel masks, life jackets or diving gear could do with being replaced.

    Several travellers were surprised by the sometimes very rough sea and found some boat trips with high waves quite adventurous. Some also describe how their snorkelling experience fell short of expectations because of murky water, a short time in the water or relatively few fish.

    Ce que les autres disent de Osa Wild

    Most travellers describe the tours as closely supervised and well organised. The very knowledgeable guides are especially praised for spotting many animals, explaining a lot and behaving considerately towards nature and wildlife. Some speak of experiences that will stay with them for a long time.

    Most guests feel that the sometimes high prices are reasonable in view of the long, experience-packed hikes. One person, however, reports a day tour with hardly any explanations, a language barrier and few sightings and found the value for money disappointing.

    Several travellers were surprised by how long and physically demanding some tours are, with very early starts, river crossings and, in rain, a lot of water on the paths. The overnight stay at the ranger station seems simpler than expected to some, with lights out early, little comfort and weak Wi-Fi.
