Enjoy a day of discovery on this exciting combination tour featuring an exhilarating boat ride in search of Pacific Ocean marine mammals, followed by an informative and relaxing beer tasting and lunch at an award-winning brewery.
Your day begins with an approximately one-hour drive south to Parque Nacional Marino Ballena —Whale Marine National Park. After a brief orientation at the visitor center, you will walk across the beach to board the whale watching boat via wet boarding to begin your exhilarating journey.
You will begin the search for humpback whales, one of the planet's largest animals, that migrate through the area seasonally. In addition to whales, keep an eye out for Pacific spotted dolphins, bottlenose dolphins, sea turtles, and seabirds such as pelicans, frigate birds, and brown boobies.
During your wildlife search, watch for the incredible natural formation of a whale's tail and Ventanas Beach to see caves carved by the ocean. If tide conditions allow, you will pause at Ventanas or Arco Beach to enjoy fresh fruit.
After your boat adventure, a 15-minute bus ride brings you to the artistic and enchanting beach town of Dominical. Here, you will visit the award-winning Fuego Brew Company. Sample locally made craft beer and enjoy a delicious lunch overlooking beautiful gardens.
You may wish to take a short walk afterward to the Dominical beachfront market, where residents sell colorful handicrafts.
A 45-minute drive returns you to the pier.
