Wales, dolphins, and snorkel fun!
We took the excursion from tamarindo. Wilmer was our driver, and he was very friendly and informative. We had a nice time as we got to see dolphins and wales, we finished it off with some refreshing snorkeling where we saw colorful fish and an eel. The lunch with local cuisine was delicious. Highly recommend.
