We were a party of four, and we had booked via our Airbnb accommodation, but the company did not pick us up, as arranged for the sunset cruise. Very disappointing, as we did not have time to reorganise another date during our stay in Manuel Antonio. Would not recommend.

We had a great time on the Ocean King catamaran cruise. The boat was comfortable and fun with two Jacuzzis and two trampolines for sun bathing. The included drinks were refreshing and lunch was good. Staff was super fun and friendly. We snorkeled, went down the big slide and jumped off the top deck into the warm water! The only negative was that the snorkeling wasn't great but we had plenty of other stuff to do.

We felt very disappointed because when it was lunch time it was raining and it was full of people, we were aware we were standing at the bar area where they serve the cocktails. We asked for permission to be there since it was very crowded and there was no space. They told us it was okay as long as we made room when they needed to collect the cocktails. However, suddenly they told us very rudely that we had to leave. While my friends were speaking with the captain, they took away their food without letting them finish lunch. Also, other friends asked for a change of music and pretty rude rudely said that it was a playlist, no problem, but it is the way to communicate.

Wonderful walk through the vicinity of Manuel Antonio on the edge of the Ocean King. The staff was very helpful. They try hard to show you the whales that may have sailed. They offer you to snorkel or if you don’t fancy a relaxing swim when the boat docks. They give you fresh fruit, cookies, food (simple but rich), all the juices you want and four alcoholic drinks. I highly recommend it.

We went on the 1st catamaran tour of the season & had such a great time! We went with our 7 & 9 year old sons. We saw a humpback whale with her baby & they did a great job of making sure we all got a chance to see them! The lunch & drinks were delicious. The boys favorite part was jumping into the ocean from the top!

We loved our walk! Leaving several minutes late (pura vida), we sailed for a while. The animation was perfect, the employees extraordinary. We swam, too short for my taste, then we had a very good dinner. The return then took place very quickly. The only flaw: it passed too fast!

Booked this via Jade Tours they picked us up right on time. The boat was huge and had two waterslides as well as two soaking tubs to cool off in. The crew was incredibly friendly, helpful and constantly checking in to make sure that everyone had what they needed and we’re having a good time. The scenery was beautiful. We got to see some dolphins and then jump in the water and use the waterslides. It’s a great way to see some of the beautiful Costa Rican coastline. Really enjoyed being on such a large boat.

Did this experience to close out our Costa Rica trip and it was wonderful! A really good value with delicious food and snacks included as well as plenty of drinks. Staff was super friendly and accommodating: the whole experience felt like one big party. Great music, lovely people, fun activities, and absolutely gorgeous views. Would highly recommend for a fun and relaxing evening on the water!!

The level of hospitality was amazing!! I went on September 8th with my friend and we were blessed to share presence with the whales. The crew was overwhelming kind and enthusiastic to make our trip memorable. Snorkeling in the warm waters was therapeutic. Jumping off the boat and using the slides was so fun. Our lunch was yummy and satiating. The drinks were great! Music brought a fun vibe! I know September is low season, so it was nice to be aboard the catamaran with just a few other families and couples. I highly recommend the value of this experience to anyone considering a catamaran to go whale watching in Costa Rica!
