About Us
Local Expertise. Genuine Hospitality. Real Ocean Adventures
Sea Snake Adventures was founded by a team of local captains and guides from Playas del Coco, people who grew up on these waters and know every reef, every current, and every hidden beach in the Gulf of Papagayo. For more than 15 years, we’ve been sharing our coastline with travelers from around the world, offering safe, personalized, and unforgettable ocean experiences.
We are not a big corporate tour operator — we are a local family of ocean lovers, committed to providing authentic adventures with the warmth and friendliness that Costa Rica is known for.
Our Story
Sea Snake Adventures began with a simple idea: to show visitors the real Papagayo — the quiet bays, the vibrant reefs, the incredible fishing grounds, and the natural beauty that only locals know. Over the years, our passion for the ocean grew into a full fleet of boats and a team of experienced captains who share the same love for the sea.
Today, we proudly operate multiple vessels, each maintained with the highest safety standards and equipped for fishing, snorkeling, coastal tours, and long‑distance adventures.
Our Captains
Our captains are true experts of the Gulf of Papagayo, with decades of combined experience navigating these waters. They know where the fish are biting, where the water is clearest for snorkeling, and how to read the ocean to ensure a safe and enjoyable trip.
Guests often tell us that our captains are the highlight of their experience — friendly, knowledgeable, patient, and always ready to help you create unforgettable memories.
Our Boats
We operate a small fleet of well‑maintained boats designed for comfort, safety, and performance. Each vessel is equipped with:
- Quality fishing gear
- Snorkeling equipment
- Coolers with ice
- Safety equipment and life jackets
Whether you’re heading offshore for big‑game fishing or exploring hidden beaches along the coast, we have the right boat for your adventure.
