Reisroute
De tour begint om ongeveer 7.30 uur vanaf het Rancho Corcovado Hotel. We zullen de uitrusting uitproberen en daarna zullen we een boot naar het eiland nemen, die ongeveer 45 minuten naar het Cano-eiland zal duren. Zodra we op het eiland zijn, geeft je gids je alle instructies die je nodig hebt om het eerste snorkelpunt te doen, dat ongeveer 45 minuten tot 1 uur duurt. In dit gebied kunt u rotsformaties en koralen bewonderen, omringd door veelkleurige vissen. Daarna nemen we een pauze van ongeveer 30 minuten en dan gaan we een tweede snorkelpunt rond het eiland doen. Na de tweede snorkel nemen we je mee naar Playa San Josecito, zodat je een van de meest verbazingwekkende stranden in Drake Bay kunt zien. Daarna keren we rond 13:00 uur terug naar Drake Bay voor de lunch in een van de lokale restaurants.
We zullen hier even stoppen voor onze gasten om het geweldige strand te zien!

After an hour of sailing you will reach the beautiful island. Under supervision you will snorkel. The guides really helped to see a lot: turtles, shark, ray and lots of beautiful fish. Good thing there's a break on the beach in between.
A fabulous day snorkeling at Cano Island! Our guide Alviro and boat driver Mynor were very professional and made sure everything went smoothly. You take off by boat for a 45 minute ride to the island. The ride can be choppy. Being out in the open ocean was great. We had a snorkel spot near the island and Alviro was right in the water with us. We spotted turtles, sting rays, sharks and lots of fish. The water was very warm and also clear. The snorkel equipment worked well. After one session, we went to a beautiful beach for fruit and relaxing. Then went to a second spot for more snorkeling. We then went to a pristine beach on the peninsula Playa San Joseito. Gorgeous! Our trip ended with a short walk to Ciao restaurant for pizza. It was delicious! I get very seasick so I had medication before hand. I have the ear patch but Bonine Extra Strength is great. Take ONE HOUR before you go. Bring lots of water!!!!! I recommend you wear a sun shirt to avoid a sunburn while swimming. Wear sandals that are okay for walking up a gravel hill to go to the restaurant. Pura Vida!! Bring
This was one of our favorite places to snorkel! The water was calm and warm, there were animals everywhere we looked, and the team made sure everyone felt comfortable the whole time. The snorkel gear was good and the masks didn't leak. There were open-top snorkels but also dry-tops, which is what we got. The break between the snorkeling sessions was on land, which I appreciated, not just because it was a beautiful island. The snacks were great, conversations were great, the tide pooling among the rocks was also great. At some point, while we were on the boat, we spotted dolphins and the captain started making waves by driving in circles as an invitation for the dolphins to "come and play." And come and play they did! They seemed to really love it, and so did we.
What an unexpected, superb experience - we were supposed to be on a different tour but the team had mixed up the booking dates, so we had to do the other tour a day later (luckily we were able to!) and to apologise for their error we were offered this complimentary snorkelling tour. In a weird way we are now very grateful the mix-up happened or we wouldn’t have done this tour! You start with a fun boat trip from Drake Bay to Caño island, then snorkelling at 2 different spots around the island with the guide, which felt safe, at a good pace (not rushed at all!) and we were lucky to see about 7 (I lost count!!) sea turtles of different species, an octopus, a whitetip reef shark, and lots of stunning fish. All followed by a ride to San Josecito beach for a tasty Casado lunch, and then back to Drake Bay - seeing dolphins playing in the boat’s wake on the way back. Absolutely wonderful time, so grateful!
The tour is fine and at all times gives a sense of security but the guide was a little distant.
Incredible experience. Our guide Alvaro was so knowledgeable and kind. We saw so much and he even helped my partner get over their fear of the ocean. Fish, sharks, ray. Wonderful tour
Excellent tour to Cano Island. Good boat ride, excellent guide and a legit operator. While we didn’t see use them for other tours they also had housing and tours to Corcovado which looked well attended, clean and also excellent. Thank you to the Pacheco family for an excellent time in the Osa Peninsula
Great experience and super nice staff. The snorkeling was the best we have had in Costa Rica. Able to get close to turtles and several beautiful fish.
Very nice experience, there is not much visibility but we still managed to see dolphins, turtle and a white fin shark to reef. Our guide Alvaro was fabulous. The only flaw in the lunch... A very small pizza for two people 😭
Professionally organized, respectful of nature, many water turtles, stingrays and fish seen and a delicious lunch. Top!
