2.5 Hours Tamarindo ATV Snorkel Tour to Secluded Beaches

Perfect Private snorkel spot ! The atv’s were well kept and the trail was full of mud and excitement they have some powerful toys !

It made my heart smile so big when we drove through the village and the children waved and smiled so big! Costa Rican locals have the warmest way of welcoming visitors.

The excursion was a lot of fun. From start the finish the hosts were amazing. The people who helped us book were unbelievably helpful. I had hoped for more muddy terrain. It was mostly main roads with a few trails. The snorkeling is DIY and the water was extremely dangerous. We ended up just walking the beach. I would not recommend for children unless the waters are calm. Again, it was still very very fun.

Everyone was extremely nice and we had a great time. From transportation to the meeting spot to transport back to our villa, they went above and beyond for us. The atvs were so fun, safe but fast. Must try.

This tour was incredibly dangerous not because of the activity but because of the guides and the equipment. The tour began with a late pick up for 11 people in a van that had 11 seats but each seat was only large enough for a child. Second, the tour was conducted by children. One tour guide was 17 years old. There was no safety measures explained, no real hand signals for stop, left or right turns and no guidance given for how close or far you should be from the next vehicle. The guides weren’t attentive and became frustrated with novice drivers. When we finally got to the beach there was no guidance on snorkeling, no explanation about where you were. It was merely here is the gear. When we got to the second beach there was no snorkeling and we were given 10 minutes only. The equipment was not good. There was extreme steam coming from the engine. When you go through water, which is supposed to be a fun part of ATV touring, your skin was burned. I got a bad burn on my leg. The company did provide two buses for return. Also the included snack is at the end and is one piece of pineapple and water. I will never use this service again for ATV or snorkeling. Awful!!!
