We drove to Montezuma, met our guide and other travelers; boarded one boat at the beach, on our way to the 2nd boat we encountered bottle nosed dolphins that played in our wake and swam along with us for about 10 minutes. After a 45 min ride, we made it to Tortuga; got to snorkel for 45 min then had... More

This island is a must-see. This other-worldly excursion was definitely the highlight of our trip to Costa Rica.

Our tour included snorkeling, but the water was cloudy and because of the lack of fish, other than the stinging jellyfish, nobody in our group spent much more than 5 minutes actually in the water. The island itself... More
