Useful Information:

Land Expeditions
The yacht will sail along the coast and will anchor close to the shore. Expeditions to land sites will start with a dinghy ride that may result in a wet or dry landing. Wet landing involves stepping into water (ankle to knee high) and walking to shore; dry landings involve stepping directly into land. Our expert guides will lead all zodiac rides and will assist you during either type of landing.
A detailed brief of the expeditions is provided ahead of time to inform about the location, topography of the land (most of the trails are easy or moderate), weather and appropriate clothing.
Land transfers will be necessary to reach some sites. Vans are used for transportation to ensure comfort, safety and timely departures. There is usually one guided visit per day allowing for enough time to discover and connect with local culture and with nature. Our oceanic beach club and water activities such as kayaking, snorkeling, SUPs, Seabobs, and swimming are also available in most coastal expeditions.

Water Activities
We are well-equipped to help you enjoy multiple opportunities for water activities available during our expedition.
Snorkeling equipment (masks, fins, and snorkels) and 3 mm wetsuits are available in various sizes free of charge in a first come first served basis.
Wetsuits are not often necessary as the average water temperature of the coast of Costa Rica ranges from 25°C(77°F) y 29°C(84°F).
If you are a frequent snorkeler, you can plan ahead and bring your own equipment for a perfect fit and comfort.
Four tandem kayaks and four stand-up paddleboards are also available for coastal exploration and fun.

Gratuities

You will quickly discover that the warm smiles and greetings from our staff extend well beyond the chilled glass of champagne that
welcomes you aboard. A service charge is not included in the fare as it is optional and should be based merely on your perception of our crew performance at the end of the expedition.
As a guideline, we suggest that each passenger leaves between USD 25 per day for the guides and crew [USD 200 Total per guest for the whole trip], which is the international standard for Luxury Expeditions. Gratuities may be paid in cash or charged to your credit card and will be distributed among our crew and guides.
