This has been one of my all time favorite activities! My husband and I really enjoyed ourselves. The food and service was excellent. The ship is beautiful. Even though there were clouds all around us, it never rained and the sunset was perfect. Everyone involved is amazing, from the staff in the Brisa Elegante office and Marina Pez Vela to Captain Oscar and his crew, the chef and bartender. Everyone is very accommodating and they took great care of us. Not a crazy rowdy party boat but still so much fun and totally worth every penny. I would do this again. Pura Vida!

We thoroughly enjoyed our time in this tour. Alex was great and left options open to us. We choose to hit the private beach and swim first for a bit while he prepped fresh pineapple and pico for us. We would up spending too much time there as we didn't have time to go to Biesanz Beach and snorkle.

Alex was a fantastic guide, we arrived at 2:30 and then kayaked to a snorkelling spot and then to a private beach where Alex made the best pico de gallo and we had fresh pineapple! I would recommend this experience to anyone coming to Manuel Antonio!!
