Catamaran Cruise From Marina Los Suenos to Tortuga Island
Our day starts with a short 45 minute catamaran cruise from Herradura to Tortuga Island. Depending on the number of passengers booked that day, you will board one of 2 custom built catamarans perfect for cruising to Tortuga Island ahead of the crowds. The larger of the 2 catamarans holds up to 70 passengers, and the slightly smaller one holds up to 49 passengers comfortably. Both boats offer comfortable seating, a spot to take in the sun, and clean washrooms on board.
Departing from Herradura, this scenic cruise across the Gulf of Nicoya is the fastest way to reach Isla Tortuga. By the time you have filled your bellies with fresh local tropical fruit and delicious muffins, we will reach Tortuga Island where your day of sun and fun begins.
Tortuga Island Beach Break
Once we arrive to the island, you will have over 5 hours of free time! That is plenty of time to snorkel in the crystal blue waters of the Gulf of Nicoya. Or maybe grab your friends and hold on tight on board a banana boat ride. You can also explore the island on foot with a guided eco tour. Be sure to grab your cameras and keep an eye out for wildlife! Or just take a break and soak up the sunshine from your comfy loungers on the beach.
In addition to all the included activities, beach vendors on Tortuga Island offer other activities such as Jet Ski rentals, kayaks, SUP paddle boards, and other floating toys to enjoy at the beach. Whatever your travel style, our Tortuga Island beach break has something for the whole family.
Our favorite local beers and your choice of cocktails are available all day long while you are chilling at the beach. And you will not go hungry for sure. While you are out enjoying your day on the island, our crew will be working hard to prepare a delicious lunch buffet of typical Costa Rican favorites. Salads, plantains, your choice of meats, and of course plenty of fresh tropical fruits. Fill your bellies with a scrumptious lunch buffet prepared by our crew before boarding the catamarans once again for the return back to the marina in Jaco.
