Description
Tour in Golfo Dulce – Whale and Dolphin Marine Sanctuary Embark on an unforgettable experience in Golfo Dulce, one of the few tropical fjords in the world. Its calm waters, without big waves and very similar to a lake, make it a safe and perfect place to enjoy a boat ride and swim in the middle of nature. This gulf is known as the only marine sanctuary for humpback whales in Latin America, where they come to breed and raise their calves every year from July to October. You'll also get to see resident dolphins like bottlenose and spotted dolphins, which often follow boats with their jumps and games. The experience doesn't end there: on the tour, it's also common to spot sea turtles, water birds, and mangroves, a vital ecosystem in the region. To top off the adventure, we'll make a stop to swim and snorkel in crystal-clear waters. Snorkeling gear's included, so you can fully enjoy the underwater world and the natural beauty of this hidden gem in Costa Rica.
