About this activity

Tortuga Island, a premier tourist hotspot situated in Jaco, Costa Rica, is a must-visit for any adventurous traveler. Conveniently located just a brief 10-minute drive north of Jaco, the starting point for the exhilarating journey to Tortuga Island is at the widely recognized Los Sueños Marina in Herradura.

Upon arrival at the marina, you'll be greeted by the welcoming and experienced crew, ready to guide you on an unforgettable voyage across the stunningly beautiful Gulf of Nicoya. Your destination is the quaint and charming Tortuga Island, or "turtle island" as it's known in English, a name that perfectly encapsulates the island's tranquil and serene atmosphere.

The tour is comprehensive, offering more than just a catamaran ride. It kicks off with a light breakfast to fuel your day, followed by a selection of refreshing beverages to enjoy as you cruise across the gulf. Upon reaching the island, you'll be treated to a delicious cooked lunch, providing a true taste of the local cuisine. But it doesn't stop there - rum punch and margaritas add a fun, tropical touch to the experience.

In addition to the culinary delights, the tour also includes a plethora of activities designed to immerse you in the natural beauty of the island. From snorkeling in the clear waters, riding the waves on a banana boat, to embarking on a nature hike through the lush island terrain, there's something for everyone.

Given the popularity of this tour among both locals and tourists alike, it is advisable to reserve your seat well in advance. This is particularly important on weekends when demand peaks, and spaces fill up quickly. So don't delay - plan your trip to Tortuga Island and look forward to an experience of a lifetime!

    Love this all day activity, its all-inclusive with food, snacks, beverages, and rum punch / margaritas! It’s a hot day out at the island but with great amount of sunscreen and the margaritas coming, it made for a perfect day. My girlfriend and I are looking to go back very soon!

  2. Daniela Castro

    Tortuga Island is, without a doubt one of my favorites! I had so much fun spending the day in this beautiful location. Lunch was delicious, and drinks were flowing. This was a perfect day at a paradisiac island!

  3. Rhonda

    A nice way to spend a day, a fun boat ride out to the Island, fun crew, all inclusive food and drinks, snorkelling, swimming, hiking, banana boat rides or just soaking up the sunshine! Touristy but fun, and we met some great people!

  4. Lisle

    Looking for a great day on the water this is the one.

  5. Andrew

    Great time! Do the nature hike…it’s actually incredible views of back side of island. Pretty expensive for a day trip but a great day and all was included.

  6. Jamie Brewer

    This experience was wonderful. You get a lot out of the cost. The whole day was amazing and all the excursions were wonderful. The island was so pretty and it was wonderful to have chairs and umbrellas included. The lunch was super delicious! I would highly recommend!
