Sunset boat tour with Iguana Divers

Pacific Sunset Tour

Santa Teresa is renowned for its gorgeous sunsets over the Pacific. It is an unwritten requirement for locals and visitors alike to make time every evening to walk out to the beach and watch the sun disappear into the ocean and witness the sky explode with dramatic colours. On this experience we will launch the boat at 4:00 pm and head out to cruise around the Cabo Blanco Nature Reserve to watch the birds flying back from their hunt, scanning the entire time for some wildlife, enjoying an easy fruit snack and a bubbly until the sun sizzles away through the waves. We will return to the beach by 6:00 pm.

Includes one bottle of bubbly and snacks. A cooler is available on the boat if you would like to bring your own additional refreshments.

Book a private boat:

1) Blas de Lezo panga: $300 for up to 6 people 

2) Go Under rib boat: $600 for up to 10 people 

Boat Tour with Iguana Divers

Open Ocean Adventure

This trip is an exciting, adventurous, once in a lifetime tour that is a photographer’s dream. Start your day with a tour around the Nicoya coastline before heading right out to sea for the remainder of the trip to search for bait balls surrounded by the most elegant hunters in the sea! The ocean may be deep, but larger fish corral baitfish to the surface, the baitfish then form a defensive baitball which attracts swarms of sea birds diving into the water to snatch the fish. That is the visual signal that we will look for to find the action. If the conditions are suitable, we will snorkel around the bait balls, hoping to get glimpses of sailfish, tuna, spinner dolphins and other pelagic species. The full-day tour (approx. 7 hours) is suitable for adults that are comfortable on boats and with previous snorkelling experience. Lunch is provided.

1) Go Under rib boat: $1500 for up to 6 people
