Tortuga Island is a top tourist destination in Jaco, Costa Rica. It is located 10 minutes north of Jaco, and the catamaran is docked at Los Sueños Marina in Herradura. Once you meet the crew, you will embark on a journey across the Gulf of Nicoya to the small island called "Tortuga Island," which means "turtle island" in English. The tour includes a light breakfast, beverages, cooked lunch on the island, rum punch, margaritas, and a few activities such as snorkeling, banana boating, and a nature hike. This tour is one of the most popular activities in the area, so make sure you reserve your seat early, especially on weekends, as they fill up fast!

Join us for a fun-filled day on a private speedboat trip to Tortuga Island. We pick you up in Jaco at 7:15 am (optional, $50 round trip) or meet you at Herradura Bay at 7:30 am, where the boat is moored. After a 40-minute ride, we'll arrive at the snorkeling site before the crowds from the catamarans. Once we're done snorkeling, you'll be treated to a delicious breakfast snack and shown how to use the unique subwing for underwater fun. Then it's beach time on the island, where you can relax in private beach chairs, play with a stand-up paddleboard, swim, and more. Around noon we serve a homemade Costa Rican lunch of rice with chicken (vegan option with 24 hours' notice). Around 2:45 pm, you'll head back on the boat and be back at your hotel by about 4 pm. This tour is private, for groups of 1 to 10.
