Board the Ti Marouba for a private afternoon sailing trip in the waters of Tamarindo’s Pacific Coast. Try snorkeling or enjoy a swim, and refresh yourself at the open bar. Enjoy lunch on board.
Free cancellation on most bookings · Bookings handled by GetYourGuide
Relax all afternoon on board a catamaran moored in the bay of Playa Tamarindo in Guanacaste. Enjoy an open bar and lunch onboard, sunning trampolines, and equipment to snorkel, kayak, or paddle board. Begin your trip with pickup from the beach. Relax as the skiff delivers you to the decks of the catamaran. Gently travel over the crystal blue waters of the Bay of Playa Tamarindo in Guanacaste, Costa Rica, where the engine will be used sparingly for a peaceful afternoon on the water. Lay back at the sunning and lounging trampolines of the boat, or take advantage of the equipment on board, including snorkeling gear, kayaks, and paddle boards. Hop into the ocean for a swim, or duck underwater to take in the wildlife below. Next, enjoy a typical local lunch, prepared by a French chef de cuisine, and served on board the catamaran. Rinse off in the freshwater showers on board, then sip on drinks from the open bar. Lay back and take in the warm sun on the sunning trampolines, suspended over the water. Finally, begin the slow journey back to port while you take in the sunset over the waters.
Meet in front of the El Chiringuito restaurant. We will pick you up at the beach with our panga skiff to join the catamaran. Open in Google Maps

"This is a great family experience. The guides are great and had all of the gear for all ages. We had a six and ten year old and both were able to snorkel without any issues. The food was very tasty and the sunset ride back to Tamarindo is picturesque. We got off the boat just in time for the storm! Definitely…"
"Honestly one of the best days of my trip! We hopped on a catamaran around 1pm, got greeted with fruit platters and unlimited drinks from the jump, tropical cocktails, cold beers, all included. The vibes were immaculate from the start. Snorkeling was insane, colorful fish, crystal clear water. After we got back on…"

This tour starts at From $85 per person on GetYourGuide on our last refresh. Prices vary by date, season, and group size, and private-charter options are priced by the boat rather than per head. Click the Book button to see live pricing for your dates.
Most tours on GetYourGuide offer free cancellation up to 24 hours before departure. Look for the cancellation policy on the GetYourGuide tour page before booking — it's flagged prominently on the offer card.
You don't need to be a strong swimmer — operators provide life vests and snorkel gear, and the crew watches the water at each stop. If you have specific concerns, message the operator through GetYourGuide before booking; they reply within hours.
Typically local rum, beer, soft drinks, and water — unlimited during the cruise. Premium spirits are usually a paid extra. Pace yourself: wind and sun hide intoxication and the deck moves.
May – October (dry season). Shoulder months (april, november (transition months)) are the best-value window — smaller crowds, lower prices, mostly the same conditions. Avoid november – april (wet season, fewer operators).
10 % cash; often included on premium charters. Cash to the captain at the end of the trip — they share with the deckhands. Service is sometimes included on private charters; check the booking confirmation.
