We booked this trip hoping for a change from the crowded catamaran tours we have used in the past. There where 6 in our group, only one had ever been on a REAL sailboat before. This was absolutley the best water tour we have ever done. The crew spoke good english, far better than our spanish, they answered every question... More

Made all reservations online with Heather. She was very helpful in planning-and offered assistance for other aspects of our stay as well. There were more people on the excursion than I had expected (Maybe 15-20 plus crew - I really tend to avoid crowds) Boat was full, but we still had a good time. Winds were very strong on the... More

Hello Brown family!! Thank you for the review! Yes, the winds we have near between December and April are referred to as the Papagayo winds. The phytoplankton bloom that is occurring is a result of these trade winds as well. I just want to point out that we did go out with 15 guests that day, and that is our... More

Heather, we truly had a wonderful time on our St.Patrick's Day sunset cruise. Sebastien, the captain, who reminded us of "Jack Sparrow" and whose English was a lot better than our Spanish, his son Hector and Manfred were very helpful and knowledgeable of sailing. They attended to all our needs and made our evening very memorable. What a beautiful sunset!... More

Our inn keeper, Rick at Rancho Armadillo highly recommended this tour company for a half day of snorkeling. It was a great experience. The gear provided was in excellent condition and the site Captain Sebastian and his crew selected was perfect for our group. The boat was roomy enough for both parties (another family joined us) without getting in each... More

We did the sunset cruise on the Sea Bird and had a wonderful time. The captain, Sebastian, and crew were great, very attentive and friendly. Drinks were served, excellent sangria and fresh fruit snacks. The 3 hours we spent on the Sea Bird were a highlight of our trip to Costa Rica. Seeing this beautiful country and coastline from the...

My brother and sister in law were in town so we decided to do something different and take a cruise around the gulf and ocean to catch the sunset and other great views. We heard great things about Sea Bird and we were not disappointed! Heather was very flexible with our hectic and last minute scheduling. The captain Sebastian and... More
