Outrigger canoes have been exploring the warmer oceans of the world for centuries, long before Columbus came to Costa Rica; the people of Oceania were exploring the Pacific in outrigger canoes. On this tour that is exactly what you will do. You will discover why the outrigger canoe is the perfect craft to take out your family or group on a wonderful outing to beautiful secluded beaches to swim and snorkel (snorkeling only when conditions permit) in clear calm waters and see the Costa Rica that you came to see. In the outrigger there is always a guide steering the canoe for you, there can be up to 7 other paddlers to share the load so that arrival at our destination is not entirely up to you. They are incredibly stable, comfortable and easy to paddle. They are ideal for families, youth groups, corporate breakaways, team building activities and even races. They are made for a fun, "no experience necessary" ½ day getaway. Tours depart from Playa Agujas at 8.15 am and 2.15 pm. Transportation is available from Jaco and all the neighboring beaches.
