Discover the perfect blend of adventure and relaxation on our Chora Island Kayak & Snorkel Safari. Launching from the sheltered southern end of Sámara Beach—renowned for its gentle swells—you’ll paddle through calm, crystal-clear waters as the coastline falls away. In about 25 minutes, arrive at Isla Chora, a protected wildlife refuge where inquisitive raccoons, sunning iguanas, and industrious crabs greet you on the shore.
Your bilingual guide will brief you on safety and point out prime snorkeling spots. Slip into the sea to explore thriving reef habitats, encountering colorful pufferfish, rainbow fish, and, with a bit of luck, graceful sea turtles. Back on land, refuel with a basket of tropical fruits, refreshing juices, and water (an optional cold beer can be arranged). A leisurely paddle returns you to Sámara Beach, leaving you with lasting memories of Costa Rica’s coastal wonders.
