Detailed itinerary

The sites of the fishing and snorkeling tours in Costa Rica depend on the sea conditions. We will choose the best one taking into account safety, visibility and currents.
Jícaro and Huevo beaches are some of the sites that provide an ideal depth range for the movement of marine life and suitable for all visibility conditions. Schools of soldier fish and snapper like to swim and are regularly found here. Besides that, it is possible to observe parrot fish, trumpet fish and many others. The depth is about 7 m. Shallow surface from 2 to 6 m where you can see corals up close and many invertebrates such as moray eels and lobsters.
