Sea Turtle Nesting Night Tour

Q: What shoes should I wear?

We recommend shoes that can get wet, such as water shoes or closed-toe sneakers, since the tour involves a walk along the beach to look for turtles.

Q: Do I need to bring insect repellent?

Yes, you need to use insect repellent. We recommend applying it before the tour begins, once you’re on the beach. If you’re using a spray, it’s very important to be careful when applying it.

Q: Does the tour include food and drinks?

Drinks are included, but food is not. We recommend having a light dinner before the tour begins, or you can bring snacks or fruit.

Q: Is this tour suitable for all ages?

Since this is a nighttime tour that involves a walk, it is not recommended for children under 5 years old or seniors over 65, unless they are in good physical condition.

Q: Do I need to be in good physical condition?

Yes, you need to be in good physical condition, as the tour involves a walk on the beach, which may have rocks and branches.

Q: If we don’t see many turtles, do we get a refund?

We need to be clear that this is a nature tour. Turtle season runs from October to April. We always check for turtle activity beforehand to ensure we’re heading to the right spot, but we can’t guarantee a 100% sighting rate or confirm the presence of a specific number of turtles. However, we will always be able to observe some turtles.

Q: Is transportation included in the tour?

For the Tamarindo and Langosta areas, it is included. Please note that since this is a shared service, we cannot wait more than 5 minutes at each location; if we do, the bus will leave since it has to continue its route.
