This tour was a really enjoyable and unexpected delight. Our guide was very friendly, knowledgeable, and personable - we couldn't have asked for better. Sunset kayaking in Golfo Dulce was beautiful; we didn't see any dolphins but we did see turtles, waterbirds and wintering shorebirds. The sunset delivered beautifully, but the absolute highlight was experiencing the bio-luminescence after dark; this was a magical experience, especially the snorkeling. Safety was addressed thoroughly and was never a concern. I can't recommend this experience highly enough.

Osa Great adventures - were really helpful in sorting out a tour by WhatsApp especially when I had so many specific requirements and had so little time to do it in. Also really helpful with advice on how to get to drake bay. The tour itself was amazing and my Guide Melvin was incredible at spotting animals. If you can afford it definately stay the night.

This was my first time scuba diving and I was a little bit anxious since I did not know what to expect. Ana was really amazing at making me feel comfortable and relaxed. Everything went super smoothly. She was a great Dive Master and made sure we saw all the cool things at the reefs. I would definitely recommend Yemanya Expeditions to visit Cano Island to anyone who would want to snorkel with Alexa or dive with Anna!
