Preserving nature is protecting our home

Responsible tourism

As a nature-based tourism business we have an obligation to protect and re-invest in actions that will ensure future generations have the same opportunity to immerse themselves in nature.

We play an active role in leading the community of Uvita – Bahia Ballena in the implementation of best practices for sustainable marine tourism and responsible community development. We recycle our plastic, glass, paper, and aluminum. We support the local school recycle program, and collaborate with Marino Ballena National Park park rangers and officials in conservation and community service projects. Bahia Aventuras is an active member in the local marine tour operators association and we are constantly implementing the rigorous standards to achieve the most Responsible Operation of Marine Tourism possible, and continue providing visitors the best and most sustainable boat and nature tours in Uvita – Bahia Ballena, Osa, Costa Rica.

    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.

    Wonderful whale watching tour. The tour guide and sailors were fantastic and very knowledgeable. We saw the stunning coast line of the Marino Bellena National Park including some amazing rock formations. We were also lucky enough to spend time with a mother and calf humpback whales. It was amazing to see them and learn that the park was a nursery for the young while they get big and strong enough for their migration south. A great experience, highly recommend.

    The snorkeling trip to Cano Island was fantastic! It’s a beautiful ride out to the island (about 1-1:20hr ride) but can be a bit rough for those who might get sea sick. The snorkeling visibility was excellent. Jellyfish were a bit of a nuisance. Nothing more than little, quick stings but irritating for those not prepared for it. Wearing long sleeve shirt/rash guard is very helpful. The guides were fantastic and very knowledgeable. We saw a ton of sea life, including multiple sea turtles. After snorkeling, there was a report of whale sightings so we bypassed getting off on the island, ate a quick lunch (which was fantastic!) and went to see a mama humpback and her baby! Awesome day. Would highly recommend!
