Awesome fun day at the ocean tour! - This is our 3rd year in a row going out with GoSouth on the fun in the ocean tour! We have 2 young boys (7&8 now during this trip). The staff are amazing, very easy to get in contact with through instagram, WhatsApp or email. All of the guides that we have had out on the boats have been top notch. We have gone cruising, beach hopping, tubing, snorkeling, fishing, skiing. Really anything you want! They serve super yummy snacks (fresh fruit, guacamole, salsa, and bean dip) and drinks (beer/wine and soft drinks). I love going out with this group because they are so nice and accommodating and know exactly what they are doing. Great with kids too! Can’t wait until next year!! We saw whales this year super close which was so cool! One of my sons has declared that he only goes tubing with gosouth in Costa Rica 😃.

Such a fun day! - Eddy and his captain were amazing! We were able to see dolphins, humpback whales, caves, snorkelling and tubing. They were knowledgeable and were great with our kids (15 and 11). The lunch was perfect and was exactly what we needed after all of our activities. I’d highly recommend doing this tour!

Best day on the water - We had 3 moms and 3 teenage daughters. They picked us up right on the beach of our hotel and were friendly and helpful the entire day. They asked us what all we wanted to do and accommodated our every request. We went up the river and saw the mangroves and parrots, we went to the caves, we snorkeled and wakeboarded. They had fresh fruit nd rinks for us as well as a nice fresh grilled lunch. Eddie was the mate and he was amazing, he helped us all day and entertained us with jokes nd fun local trivia. Anoldo, the captain, was great as well. It got a little rough in the afternoon and he managed the waves and kept us dry. Take the trip! It is worth it.

The best time! - We had so much fun. Went with teens and they got to do all the water sports.. tubing, wake boarding, jet skiing. (Jet skis are extra.. make sure to inquire about adding them. ) bbq lunch on a private beach was also a highlight. The crew was professional and so nice. Worth every penny!

Great Time - We did the fun in the ocean boat tour. Alejandro and Jose were excellent. We got to see a good amount of fish, dolphins and other wildlife. We had a ton of fun wakeboarding, skiing and tubing. I would highly recommend it.

Its a MUST do... we've done it 2X and will do it again - This was our 2nd time with Go South, we even drove further to meet them since we were staying in a different location. It was just as amazing as the first time. The staff goes out of their way to ensure everyone is having a good time. We had 4 adults and 3 kids ages 12 - 8 and the oldest were 75. We could not have packed more fun into the day. Fishing, snorkling, jet ski, skiing, tubing, swimming and the lunch was amazing .

Great Day with GoSouth! - Great day with our GoSouth crew David & Jonathan. This was by far one of our most memorable days in Costa Rica. Our kids loved the tube and snorkling with Jonathan. He would dive and find star fish and other sea creatures to show and teach them about. The boat was in excellent condition and we felt safe and well looked after the entire time. They know the area well and will take you to the beaches and places that fit within your needs. We would definitely charter with GoSouth on our next trip. Thank you again for the great day!

Ocean Fun! - We had the best day with Jonathan and Lino. We fished, then snorkeled and looked for shells on the beach, finally we went tubing. Lino took us snorkeling and found some amazing fish and shells. Jonathan made a delicious lunch while we took in the clear blue water. To finish the day we went tubing on the ocean. It was a wonderful day and we would definitely use Go South again.

Great half day on the water - We have an 8 and 10 year old that Aaron and Jonathan completely blew out of the water with fun! They were very professional, attentive and detail oriented. They were on time and made sure we were always comfortable! Taught us how to fish, showed us caves, toured a river, made healthy yummy snacks and took us tubing! There were many other activities to do on the boat that we didn’t try but had many options for the trip!
