ABOUT THE TOUR
Enjoy a half-day beach experience at San Josecito, one of the most scenic and peaceful beaches on the Osa Peninsula. Guests are transported by boat along the coastline and dropped off directly on the beach, where they’ll have time to relax, swim, snorkel, or explore at their own pace. Each group is set up with beach chairs and a cooler stocked with snacks and cold drinking water. Snorkeling gear is provided, allowing guests to explore the nearby reefs, where you may see tropical fish and occasionally sea turtles. There are also coastal trails accessible from the beach for light hiking to the north and south, offering additional viewpoints and exploration. At the end of your beach time, a boat will return to pick you up and bring you back to the hotel. Afternoon departures may include a scenic return during sunset conditions, depending on timing. 3-4 hours, double occupancy required.
