Trip Overview

After we pick you up, we will start our day by paddle boarding along one of Costa Rica’s most lush coastlines, before heading south towards the Osa Peninsula. We will visit 3 different waterfalls, which all have jumps (6 ft / 12 ft / 30 ft approx) as well as areas to swim and explore. One waterfall even has a 20 ft natural slide!

The walks to these locations are about 5-7 mins, and can be generally done by all ages as long as the person is semi-active. None of the jumps or slides available are mandatory to progress through the tour, so each guest can be as adventurous as they’re comfortable with.

You will also get to explore some of the surrounding caves and we will take you to one of our favorite beaches in the area.

We provide lunch, snacks, water and transit back to your location, so you can have a stress-free day of exploring with us in the beautiful province of Puntarenas, Costa Rica.

Don’t Just Take Our Word For It!


What an incredible tour! We truly had the best experience, and our guides, Ismael, Anthony, and Mike, made the day so special. They were amazing with our kids (ages 3 and 5), so patient and encouraging. They even helped give our 5 yr old the confidence to go down the waterfall slide!The lunch was delicious, and our photographer did an incredible job capturing the day with beautiful photos and videos. She even made the sweetest handmade souvenir for my kids.We’re staying in Dominicalito, and they were kind enough to meet us halfway instead of having us drive all the way to Quepos. That saved us about 30 minutes each way and made everything so much easier.We couldn't have asked for a better experience. Highly recommend!
