The magic sound of the wind hitting the rigging, the snap of the sails and sheets as the wind fills them up and makes the craft skim over the ocean’s surface. On our sail boat tour you’ll have the chance to enjoy Manuel Antonio’s waters in peaceful quiet. Sailing avoids the perturbing motor noises that may frighten off the animals you are trying to observe, so these tours are ideal for snorkeling or dolphin watching.
