Step Aboard Your Private Floating Lounge in Manuel Antonio
This 43-foot Fountain Pajot isn’t just a boat—it’s a floating VIP lounge. Stretch out on the oversized trampolines up front, where sunbathing and dancing are practically mandatory, or retreat to the air-conditioned cabin with Wi-Fi and TV when you need a little chill time.

From bow to stern, this catamaran was built for fun, comfort, and good vibes only.
Smooth Sailing & Stunning Coastline of Manuel Antonio
Your journey begins at Marina Pez Vela in Quepos, where our friendly bilingual crew welcomes you aboard like old friends. We’ll cruise the dazzling Manuel Antonio coastline, where jungle-draped cliffs tumble into the sea and dolphins, turtles, and rays often come out to play. In season, you may even spot migrating whales surfacing right alongside us. Weather permitting, we’ll hoist the sails and let the wind carry us—it’s Costa Rica sailing at its best.
Morning Snorkel, Sunset Cruise, or Full-Day Bliss
- Morning Snorkeling Charter (4 Hours): Start your day gliding along the coast before anchoring in the calm turquoise waters of Biesanz Bay. Gear up for a guided snorkel session among colorful tropical fish, then paddle, swim, or just relax in this postcard-perfect cove.
- Afternoon Sunset Charter (4 Hours): From November to May, Manuel Antonio sunsets are pure magic. After a snorkel stop, settle in with a cocktail and watch the sky ignite with shades of gold, pink, and purple.
- Full-Day Adventure (6 Hours): Can’t get enough? Go all in with a full day at sea. You’ll get the best of both worlds—snorkeling, sailing, relaxing, plus a freshly prepared hot lunch served on board.

Insider Tip: This is a perfect boat for celebrating special occasions like bachelorette groups, or anniversary celebrations with a group of family and friends. Snorkeling is best in the mornings year-round. Keep in mind that during the summer months of June through October, it typically rains every day in the afternoon. So we do not recommend sunset tours at that time.
