    Great experience. The guide and crew did a great job. We weren’t sure we would see any whales as the first sightings of the season were only the day before and far away, so we expected to have a long boat ride to get to where they had been spotted…but 20 minutes in and we saw them! First boat there. The driver was respectful and kept a good distance but also allowed us all to get as best view as he could. They also showed us around a cove and the guide was very informative about everything. And we stopped for a swim to cool off, and we’re given some fruit. Even in reception before leaving we had free coffee and some really nice banana bread. The guide was super friendly and kind too.

    I’ve always found whales very strange. Even though I knew a lot, I still learned a few more things. I love nature. I believe my own life has improved more while watching them.

    Bahia Aventuras took my family of 5 snorkeling at Cano Island and then, two days later, we went with them to Corcovado. Both trips were excellent! The guides are friendly and fun and so knowledgeable, and the lunch they provide is delicious! We saw so much amazing marine life on our snorkeling trip that we never would have been able to spot by ourselves. We also really enjoyed Corcovado and saw animals we had never even heard of.
