Overview

This two-hour boat tour takes you through the mangroves of Las Baulas National Marine Park in the Guanacaste province near Tamarindo, Costa Rica. A local bilingual guide will point out wildlife such as howler monkeys, crocodiles, various birds, and iguanas along the estuary. The tour departs from the river mouth in Tamarindo and includes hotel pickup and drop-off within the Tamarindo and Langosta areas. The boat used for the safari is shaded to provide comfort even on hot days. The timing of the tour depends on high tide, and your exact pickup time will be confirmed after booking. Bottled water is provided during the trip. The tour is suitable for children and people with limited mobility, and it avoids long bus rides by starting directly at the river mouth. Pickup is arranged 10 to 15 minutes before departure from several points: Tamarindo Beach, Tamarindo town, and Playa Langosta. You should wear comfortable clothing and bring sunscreen and insect repellent for the trip.
