Marino Ballena Sea Kayaking Tour Photo

On this active tour of Marino Ballena National Park, you’ll get to visit a popular snorkeling spot and have a fun kayaking cruise around the coastline. This excursion comes with great views and the chance to see colorful wildlife.

This tour sets out when the tide is low, to make it easy to get the kayaks into the water. Your guide will point you in the direction of a sandy formation called the Whale’s Tail. Your guide will take you to the part of the Whale’s Tale with the best snorkeling. It takes about 30 to 45 minutes to paddle there. From your kayak, you’ll have an incredible view of Costa Rica’s Pacific Coast, with the mountains that surround Uvita looming in the distance.

Once you arrive at the snorkeling spot, you’ll get to explore the underwater world for about an hour. While you’re down there, some of the species of sea life you might see include conch, starfish, parrotfish snapper, and eels. There are also a couple of different species of coral that grow in this area.

As the tide rises, the tour will return to shore. To make the return trip extra fun and a little bit faster, your guide will show you how to angle your boat to do some kayak surfing. This type of surfing doesn’t take any special skill, and you’ll have the hang of it in no time.

Once you’ve almost reached the shore, the tour will make its last stop at a mangrove forest. Keep an eye out for the toucans and small reptiles that live in the partially submerged trees.

Most people can take this tour, but it is best suited for people who are in relatively good physical condition.
