Cruising along the coast for a breathtaking 50-minute boat ride is how you’ll begin your voyage to
Tortuga Island.
Jagged volcanic rock spills into the sea to create a dramatic contrast with the brown sand, red rocks and crushed shells that make up the variety of different beaches along the way.
Spotting a group of playful dolphins, marveling at the enormous jumping manta rays or for the luckiest of visitors, catching a glimpse of surfacing humpback whales are just a few examples of the marine life frequently viewed as we make our way to the island. Upon arriving to the tropical paradise of
Tortuga Island we anchor the boat within viewing distance of the white sand beach for our first snorkeling session.
The crystal waters at
Tortuga Island are surrounded by volcanic rock reef which is home of the best snorkeling site on Costa Rica’s Central Pacific coast.
King Angelfish, Porcupine fish, Morays, Needlefish, Spotted Eagle Rays and a myriad of other tropical beauties make for a phenomenal snorkeling experience.
Not to mention the oysters your guide might find for a fresh ceviche on the beach!
After your incredible snorkeling adventure we take you onto the white sand beach of
Tortuga Island.
While lunch is being prepared grab a cold drink and take a stroll along the beach and swim in the calm crystal waters.
For lunch our chef serves up fresh BBQ fish or chicken in his secret sauce, tasty grilled potatoes and vegetables, bread and a big fresh tropical fruit buffet.
The rest of the afternoon is yours to enjoy.
Take part in a volleyball game or rent a kayak to discover the other secluded beaches of the island.
Or for the more adventurous take a hike up to the top of the island for some spectacular views of the Gulf of Nicoya and the surrounding islands.
Join us for a second snorkeling session at a different spot on the reef or take a siesta under the coco palms on the island. As the day comes to an end we get back on the boat for the picturesque ride back to Montezuma.

Web Reviews about the Taxi Boat:
Speed Boat Taxi Transfer to Jaco Beach (and other destinations on request):
The trip to Jaco (Herradura) by boat is one hour. Don’t take the long way. Take our boat directly from Montezuma Beach to Jaco. You may also have the chance to see dolphins, whales and other marine wildlife. Ask about other destinations!
Taxi Boat to and from Jaco
The private speed boat, taxi boat or water taxi to Montezuma or Jaco is one of the best way of transportation in this area of Costa Rica. Saving up to 7 hours of hot and uncomfortable trip by land, the taxi boat most accurate way to get to Montezuma or Jaco.
Taxi Boat Jaco Montezuma
We ended up staying two nights here and then leaving via private taxi boat across the awesome Nicoya Gulf, ($30USD ea), for a 1 hour transfer to the to town of Jaco (which would have taken us at least 8 hours of busing / ferries to get to otherwise.
Taxi Boat
So in a few minutes we're off to taxi a “Taxi Boat” up the coast to Montezuma, which is on the peninsula on the north pacific side of Costa Rica. I've wanted to go to this area for a while now! See the image on how we'll cut across the ocean to get there. The boat is an hour instead of the many (treacherous) hours driving up the coast, and probably more scenic :)
