Leaving early in the morning, much of the trip will be spent on the open ocean. You will enjoy breathtaking views of the beautiful coastline. This is the only place in Costa Rica where the mountains meet the ocean.

You will also likely see many dolphins, whales and turtles on the way.
Once we arrive at the island, we snorkel at two different locations, depending on conditions at the island. Typical, the visibility usually exceeds 80 ft. The variety of maritime wildlife that will be seen during your Isla Del Caño Snorkeling Tour is just astounding.

Some species that we frequently encounter include Turtles, Manta Rays, Sting Rays, Devil Rays. Other species like Barracudas, Bottlenose Dolphins, Spotted Dolphins, Whitetip Reef Sharks, and Moray Eels are common in the island.

Rarely Humpback Whales or Whale Sharks may be seen. This provides a thrill that snorkelers will never forget. This only has a chance of happening somewhere like Caño Island Biological Reserve.

Encompassing 14,000+ acres of ocean, “La Reserva Biológica Isla del Caño” is exactly the kind of place that deserves not only protection but also to be experienced for its wonderful marine environment and wildlife.
The Caño Island Biological Reserve is considered a world-class diving destination, and the snorkeling is no less spectacular.

The island guide fish and marine mammals from near and far to this marine paradise. The gorgeous underwater geology of the island is reason enough for you to stay a while. You will enjoy the company of over 70 species of indigenous oceanic wildlife.

Multiple types of Coral are in abundance, as well as several types of Shellfish, Mollusks, and Arthropods complementing and completing an ecosystem that is as spectacular as the environment it exists within.
