Timarouba Catamaran Sunset Cruise With Open Bar Lunch& Snorkeling

We had an amazing time on this catamaran trip in Costa Rica! The captain and crew were fantastic, friendly, professional, and made everyone feel welcome from the moment we stepped aboard. The food and drinks were plentiful and delicious, and the entire experience was well organized and relaxing. The highlight was the beautiful island we visited, with its stunning beach, crystal-clear water, and incredible scenery. It was the perfect mix of adventure and relaxation. Highly recommend this excursion to anyone visiting Costa Rica!

Wonderful catamaran cruise. Great guides so nice. Great music, food and fun!

Super fun experience on the boat! The drinks were flowing and the lunch they served us was fantastic. We were taken to a cove to snorkel and hangout on the beach. We didn’t see any fish, but still enjoyed our time there. The ride back watching the sunset was breathtaking. Highly recommend!

The crew was personable, friendly. The food was delicious! All 6 of us had a great time!! We would totally do this again on our next visit!!

We had good weather for our trip, which gave great views of the sunset. It took us a bit to figure out which was our tour at the meeting point but thankfully there are multiple tour groups and they all sort of know each other enough to point you in the right direction. We enjoyed chatting with the other guests and the drinks and lunch were delicious! The lunch was rice, chicken, beans, salad, fruit. When packing, be beach-ready! The best part was the hour floating in a beach cove.

We had a great time on the Timorouba Catamaran! The tour took us to a beautiful private beach area with great snorkeling, lunch, and cocktails! We had an amazing sail back with a super fun and friendly group, which made the experience even better. Highly recommend the Timorouba Catamaran for a fun and relaxing day on the water!

Great staff. Good food. Beautiful views. I would definitely recommend this activity. Our group had a great time.

Excellent crew - Justin and Kaylor. It’s worrh it. And the chicken dish with black beans is delicious. Very safe and enjoyable trip. Superbly clean boat.

A great crew, great people to meet, food, drinks and snorkeling was awesome. Well worth the day spent in Costa Rica!!

So much fun and worth every penny! Lots of drinks and snorkeling

This was a fun sunset cruise. The views from the catamaran were amazing and we enjoyed the stop to snorkel and eat lunch. It was a little scary that the open bar was available prior to snorkeling, but all’s well that ends well? The boat guides were super nice and laid back - made for a very enjoyable afternoon.

Lacklustre and boring. Other catamaran across the way looked like and sounded like more fun.

The cruise started a little disorganized trying to figure out where and who to meet up with but once that was figured out it was an amazing 5 hrs with a crew that was personable and fun to be around. It was an excellent experience and I would definitely do it again when I come back. Food was great, and drinks were actually unlimited. We traveled up the coast to a secluded spot where there was a small beach and a nice snorkel spot. We arrived back in port perfectly on time about 15 mins before sunset and watched the sunset from just outside of the bay. Then proceeded to push in and disembark before it got really dark. Couldn’t have asked for a better experience.

Great cruise. Saw some turtles in the ocean and a few fish and stingray during the snorkel. Not a ton of fish around but the boat was fun. The food was great and the drinks were flowing. They had plenty of noodles and snorkel equipment as well as some kayaks and a float. And the sunset ride home was amazing.

Honest review: not worth the money. Yes you go on a catamaran but the open bar is basic and the drinks are bad, the food was very average and the snorkeling equipment is outdated. They also provide 1 paddle board and 1 kayak for 50+ people to use. I honestly would not recommend.

I'll be comming back for sure with my family. I loved the food and the drinks. Overall 20/10 I had a great time

Had a wonderful time on the catamaran. Crew was welcoming and friendly. Food was delicious. Overall great time.

The trip was great. Crew was excellent. It is not a snorkeling trip, as they had enough equipment for about a quarter of the passengers. They did have pool noodles for everyone to float around with. The lunch was basic but very tasty. Rice, beans, salad and a piece of chicken. Drinks were all that you need. I would recommend booking with them.

The boat ride was ok, the gentleman on thr boat were nice and hospitable. The check in process was horrible no signs, no direction and very unorganized. People were skipping the line and handing men cash to ride the boat skipping all the prepaid guests. Boat was overcrowded and the worst part was that you have to take a smaller boat to the catamaran. The boat was slippery and still wet with white paint which ruined my clothes.

If you market this cruise as a snorkeling excursion with kayaks available, there should be enough snorkels and kayaks for everyone. There was about a quarter of snorkeling equipment for everyone on board and one kayak. Not worth the money.

Fun relaxing experience. Hubs and I stayed on the boat but the kids swam to shore and explored the beaches. Food was really good and the staff very funny and friendly!

My family and friends saw great reviews for this trip, so we decided to try it. It started out cool, but halfway through and towards the end, it seemed like the crew didn't really care about the passengers' safety. Several people were struggling in the water, and the crew just looked away while other passengers helped. They told passengers they ran out of plates and food, but then they made themselves plates and ate. Passengers pay for excursions and lunch, so I thought that was incredibly unprofessional. The crew definitely needs hospitality and safety training.

The sunset cruise was the perfect way to end the day. The scenery was stunning, the atmosphere was relaxing, and the open bar made it even more enjoyable.

First off the passengers on the boat was super fun and made it a great experience. The Process was unsafe then what I'm used to, the small boat that picked us up from the beach was just packed with people with no life jackets on board and felt that was very unsafe cause things can happen even though it's a short ride. They ran out of food for the passengers, the crew could of been more attentive to their passengers. I noticed when it was time to leave the beach to head back, there was no head count whether everyone got back onboard or not. Two people struggled getting back on the boat and needed help as they panicked and had to get help from another passenger as the captain/crew stood there and watched them struggled the whole time and didn't do anything to help get them back on the boat. In summary, if you're looking for a booze cruise and you don't mind fhe unplanned and safety aspect of it then this is a good way to go. I would not do it again or recommend anyone .

Such an amazing experience from the views to the open bar, an amazing lunch.They created such a fun and memorable experience.Took us to an amazing private beach overall 10 out of 10 would recommend!

We booked the sunset catamaran tour and it exceeded every single expectation. It was a beautiful, extraordinary day that we will be talking about for a long time. Here is what made it so special: The Crew: Estevan, Axel, and Diego are absolute rockstars. They were incredibly friendly and personable, making us feel welcome the second we stepped on board. They catered to our every whim and made sure everyone was happy and safe. The Amenities: The snorkeling was tons of fun, the lunch provided was delicious (and way better than your standard tour food!), and the open bar was fantastic—they serve the best drinks! The Finale: Watching the stunning sunset from the deck of the catamaran was the perfect wrap-up. If you want a top-tier, stress-free, and incredibly fun day on the water, book this tour and hope you get Estevan, Axel, and Diego!

I booked this experience through Viator, and it honestly turned out to be the absolute highlight of our entire trip. From the very first moment we arrived, we were welcomed by the most wonderful staff team – they were not only incredibly professional and organized, but also genuinely warm, energetic, and attentive. They made sure every single guest felt included, safe, and ready to have a great time. Their smiles and positive vibes set the tone for the whole day. The food and drinks were absolutely top-notch. Right at the beginning, as we stepped in under the blazing sun, the team greeted us with generous platters of fresh watermelon and pineapple – juicy, sweet, and perfectly chilled. That first bite was pure bliss, sending a wave of cool refreshment through us and instantly melting away the summer heat. It was exactly the kind of welcome we needed to kick off the adventure with renewed energy. The local cuisine was a feast for the senses: every dish was packed with authentic, bold flavors, from perfectly grilled meats to tangy salsas and traditional sides that tasted like they came straight from a local grandmother's kitchen. It was a delicious cultural experience in itself. And let's talk about the beverages – what a selection! The open bar offered everything from signature cocktails and ice-cold local beers to soft drinks and creative mocktails. The bartenders were quick, friendly, and always happy to whip up something special. There was never a dull moment when it came to drinks. But the real game-changer was the music. The DJ kept the energy sky-high with an electrifying mix of Latin beats, international chart-toppers, and classic party anthems. The rhythm was so infectious that the dance floor was packed from the first song to the very last. Everyone – strangers and friends alike – danced together, laughed together, and celebrated like we'd known each other for years. Time flew by in a blur of fun, and before we knew it, the activity was coming to an end. Yet nobody wanted to leave – we lingered, took group photos, exchanged contact info with new friends, and kept dancing even as the music faded. We walked away with nothing but pure joy, big smiles, and unforgettable memories that will stay with us forever. If you're looking for an experience that combines amazing food, fantastic drinks, great music, and an incredible team of people who truly care about your enjoyment – this is it. I cannot recommend it highly enough. Five stars all the way – thank you to the entire crew for giving us a day we'll never forget!

We really enjoyed the experience. The crew was great. The drinks were unlimited and the food was delicious. Definitely recommend it.

Fun bost cruise experience with the family. Swimming and the ocean is always fun, and they fed us quality food. Highly recommended.

We took a private tour with my business associates and it was perfect. We enjoyed the staff, spacious boat, fair pricing. Atmosphere was perfect, we were a party of 43. We left the boat right after the sunset, it was amazing!

I will come again, not alone this time. I had a great time solo, but i need to show all my friends this tour! Incredible!

I have to admit this is the best boat tour i have ever done. Incredible from A to Z

You have to do it! Incredible time!

Lots of fun fu day at sea and I a cove to swim snorkel and eat. We had a great group approx 50ppl. So this will vary per excursion . Only issue was the playlist. Mainly Spanish songs so if you do not know the lyrics it is not for you.

He started off a little slow, but once the boat got moving, knitting, started flowing-it was like a family reunion. The crew did let a couple of the passengers put on their music and that was amazing! People were dancing singing, helping each other. It really embodied Pura Vida.

Every detail was taken care of, fun atmosphere, fun music, great day. Our teens also had a blast! Lunch was provided and very good

Really fun experience! Staff and drinks were great!

This should be advertised as a Booze Cruise/Sunset Cruise being second. We had a ton of a fun, but it’s certainly not a kid friendly experience or at least ours wasn’t. The tour didn’t feel too long but it was also long if that makes any sense. The private beach area (you need to swim about 50 yards to) was nice, we were allowed about an hour or so in the water/beach to hang out before lunch was ready. Lunch is late (3-4pm) but very good. All of the employees made the experience great. They were friendly and pumped drinks out like their life depended on it. I think a lot of your experience is determined by the group on board. Ours had 50 people on it, it did feel crowded at times but that’s because there was a group of girls who were absolutely trashed and being disrespectful to everyone. Regardless, if you and some friends want to go out for a nice day on the water and have some included drinks go ahead and book. If you want romantic or peace, do not under any circumstances book. In the end we did see the sunset, your entire cruise back to shore was during it, and the boat was parked for a few minutes to get pictures, arriving back just as darkness hit. One last note: it might seem a little unorthodox at first jumping on a little boat to get out there but it made for a fun experience.

Free-flow drinks and food were delicious. Crew was fun and helpful.

Fun boat ride, good for all ages but definitely a booze cruise. Staff was very helpful. It’s more of an early dinner than lunch. We ate around 4.

Wonderful experience enjoying Costa Rica’s beautiful scenery and food on the water with my family. We were definitely the only family there with kids- thankfully at least they were all not too young to be phased by an open bar experience (we did not fully comprehend upon sign up) and had a first rate time! We all had fun mingling with the amazing crew who kept things lively and were highly attentive to everyone’s needs. The kids enjoyed jumping off the boat and swimming around during the snorkeling and swimming time. The food was first rate!

To be fair, I’m not sure what I was hoping for. But sure enough it was a boat half full of people in their 20’s looking to drink, dance, and be loud! The crew seemed to enjoy the chaos as well, with girls dancing behind the bar, sitting with the captain, etc.. This is more a warning to those unsure about what this is- if you’re looking for an enjoyable boat ride with the family, don’t do it! If you’re looking to pound booze and dance this is for you!

The captains did a great job transporting us safely, the swimming spot is beautiful and lunch came at 4pm but was delicious! On the way back captain had a great playlist and it was a party! Would highly recommend!

If you are in Guanacaste, you must do this tour! We took the afternoon trip with Timarouba Catamaran Sailing Tours and had an absolute blast. The music was fantastic, the energy was high, and the open bar kept the tropical drinks flowing all afternoon. The crew was fantastic. The lunch served was great and much needed. They took us to a private beach that allowed for snorkeling, kayaking, and floating. We were able to sunbathe on the nets and watch the sunset over the Pacific Ocean. If you are looking for an afternoon of entertainment and fun, this is it! Axl (not sure how to spell it) and his crew were AMAZING!

Crew was wonderful, kept the drinks flowing. Food was delicious, sunset was beautiful. Highly recommend!

We had a great time on this cruise...the food was good the crew was friendly and accommodating. 1 thing that caught us off guard...be prepared for no dock...you take a smaller boat to get to the Catamaran! A bit frightening but turned out to be not so bad.

This was a great experience until we hit a storm that tossed the catamaran around with big waves. The captain losing his sh*t and calling a bunch of us “f*ckers” (as we were wanting to get off the boat due to the lightening once we were back in port) in Spanish was especially not good.

Great crew. Good food and drinks. Although there was a rain storm the crew was very professional and helpful.

Overall, it was a good afternoon excursion, but it should probably be advertised as a booze cruise more than a snorkeling trip. The area for snorkeling is not great, although we enjoyed just swimming around. Getting there was at least an hour if not more and the heat made this lengthy journey a little long. The food was pretty good, the service was good, and the people who ran the boat were great as well. If I were 20-35, it would have been fantastic.
