Enjoy Isla Tortuga in the Low Season

Escape the ordinary and dive into an extraordinary adventure with us here at Bahía Rica Adventures on our day tour to Isla Tortuga. While many flock to this tropical paradise during the high season, the low season offers an equally enchanting, yet more tranquil, experience.

 

Isla Tortuga, renowned for its pristine beaches and crystal-clear waters, becomes a serene haven during the low season. The island’s natural beauty is undiminished, with lush greenery, vibrant marine life, and stunning landscapes waiting to be explored. The slightly quieter ambiance allows you to immerse yourself fully in the island’s magic without the bustle of larger crowds.

 

Our day tour starts with a scenic boat ride from Bahía Rica Adventures. As you glide across the calm waters, keep an eye out for rays, turtles and other marine life that often make appearances. The journey itself is a breathtaking introduction to the adventure that lies ahead.

 

Upon arrival at Isla Tortuga, snorkeling enthusiasts can dive into the warm, inviting waters to discover a colorful underwater paradise teeming with exotic fish and coral reefs. For those who prefer to stay above water, stand-up paddleboarding offers a unique perspective of the island’s coastline, combining adventure with tranquility.

 

Relaxation is also on the agenda. Lounge on the soft, white sands under the shade of swaying palm trees, or take a leisurely swim in the gentle waves.

 

A day tour with Bahía Rica Adventures during the low season is more than just a trip; it’s a relaxing escape that reconnects you with nature. With fewer tourists around, you can truly savor the serene beauty of Isla Tortuga. Join us for an unforgettable adventure and discover why the low season is the perfect time to experience this tropical gem.

SUP rentals at Bahia Rica

Stand up paddle boards (SUP) offer a fun, relaxing way to play on the water. With a minimum of gear, you can paddle the smooth waters of the Nicoya Gulf.

Paddle boarding delivers a full-body workout and thus has become a popular cross-training activity. And since you stand at your full height, you can enjoy unique views of everything from sea creatures to what’s on the horizon.

Now you can rent SUP Boards here at Bahia Rica Fishing & Kayak Lodge, and go explore these waters.

SUPs have been spotted around the globe, anywhere where there is easy access to safe waters, as well as the surfing line ups of the world – and now also at Bahia Rica Fishing & Kayak Lodge. The rise in popularity of stand up paddle-boarding can also be attributed to how easy it is to learn. Within a very short time, you can become comfortable in the water and on your board.
You can take the SUP’s out for a fun day with your friends or even do your yoga exercises on the SUP. Come enjoy this awesome sport with us, rent a board and get out on the beautiful Gulf of Nicoya.
