What to expect

Our Combo tour will start after all tour participants have arrived at our office in Uvita, which is also the meeting point. Our certified guide will give you a clear explanation of the tour at the beginning. At our office you can enjoy snacks such as pastries, bananas, coffee and orange juice. A short walk separates us from the beach of the Marino Ballena National Park, where we start our boat tour. Now we start to discover the area and the animals that live there. We will look for whales (the chance of seeing them depends on the season), dolphins, various bird species and turtles. Highlights such as The Whale Rock, Playa Ventana with its impressive number of caves and of course the whale tail formation will also be part of this fascinating boat tour. While exploring the national park you will have the opportunity to swim in the ocean. During the tour you can refresh yourself with fruits and water. After the excursion you are free to stay in the national park or join us back to our office where the tour ends.
