  • 5Hiking in the Dark!

    Fun night of hiking in the dark! We saw lots of creepy crawlies! My husband really enjoyed how knowledgeable Leo was. I wish I had gotten more photos but I was definitely in the moment.

  • 5Leo, is a passionate...

    Leo, is a passionate guide and very knowledgeable it was so lovely to learn from him about all the creatures that were on our path on this walk . Great activity, for solo, duo or group. It's also a very accessible tour that is easy to walk so kids are welcomed. This type of activity is unpredictable so you might or might not see the specific animals you wanted to see - but you will still have a good time no matter what and discover some you weren't even thinking of.

  • 5Lots of creepy crawlers

    Me and my boyfriend did this tour, our guide Leo was very knowledgeable about all the little creatures surrounding us. We saw: tarantulas ( baby and mature), tarantula hawk, bats, birds, stink bugs, stick bugs, a millions wolf spiders, daddy long legs, giant crickets, giant cockroach, giant moth, yellow tree frog, milk frog, tailless whip scorpion, leaf cutter ants ( carrying pieces of leaves), ant lions, and more. It was a lot of fun. We were in a group of 6 and it lasted for about 2 hours.

    Leo was a phenomenal guide who spotted creatures with otherworldly ease. He was terrific in sharing knowledge about different species and couldn't have been friendlier.

About Tamarindo

Tamarindo is a surf town on Costa Rica's Guanacaste coast, with a wide sandy bay, an estuary and a strip of beach bars looking west to the sunset.

Tamarindo grew from a fishing village into the main beach town of Guanacaste, with its beach, shops and restaurants strung along one main road. The bay has gentle waves for beginners, and surf schools line the sand, while more powerful breaks lie a short drive along the coast. The estuary at the northern end shelters mangroves where herons and the occasional crocodile are seen from kayaks.
