Private Whale Watching Boat Tour

Experience an unforgettable whale watching tour in Marino Ballena National Park, Uvita, Costa Rica. With more than 30 years of experience, we proudly maintain a 95% success rate for whale sightings during peak season. Our proven strategy and dedicated scouting team allow us to locate whales efficiently, often making us the first operators to reach the best observation areas.

What sets us apart is our advanced scouting system: an additional boat is dispatched specifically to search for whales, significantly increasing the likelihood of close and memorable encounters with these extraordinary marine mammals.

Our professional, enthusiastic, English-speaking guides enrich the experience by sharing in-depth knowledge, fascinating facts, and engaging stories throughout the tour. As experienced whale watching specialists, we are committed to providing respectful, close-range encounters with whales and other remarkable marine life.
