Golfo Dulce is one of only four tropical fiords in the world and is home to an extraordinary variety of marine life, including several cetacean species. Two species of dolphins reside in the gulf year-round, while from July through November visitors may have the opportunity to witness humpback whales and their calves as they migrate through these waters. Sea turtles and a wide range of marine birds are also frequently spotted during the excursion.

For an even more immersive experience, guests can enhance their tour with an approximately one-hour snorkeling session, offering the chance to discover the vibrant underwater world of Golfo Dulce. This optional snorkeling experience is available for an additional $60 + taxes per person.
