My husband and I are officially addicted to your channel! We hope to visit you guys later this year, with the intentions of checking out Costa Rica for a permanent move later next year. We have two children as well, so thank you for all the information videos! We really appreciate your hard work and great insight. Thank you Chris and Shayna!
One of our local friends, in Tambor, does charters to the Island as well. Tavo's family has had a beach spot, to the east of Zumba tours, on the island for years. His boat is smaller than the one you took, but we have gone with him 6 or 8 times with friends in the last 12 years. We were there in December, and saddly the local mascot, Willamena, ( a crippled wild boar ) had past away during the covid year. She loved laying at your feet as you buried her in sand. It was pretty neat how tame a wild boar can get!
Awesome! This is great to know. Maybe next time we will contact your local friend and have him take us out. Honestly, when it comes to doing things like this, we much rather prefer to have local people take us privately to certain attractions so that we can do things at our own pace and not be on other people's timing and schedules 😊
Thank you for this Chris. Beautiful place and a wonderful touristy thing to do. Not something I know you’d do all the time, a little pricey but Hey, nice change of pace. Nice shots underwater and the editing on the sound was excellent. Great looking water and sand. Those Coco-Locos and Pina Colada’s looked so good. Eat healthy and drink alcohol as well. Visiting you guys is on my list of things I defiantly have to do, you’re on my list as soon as I get my car and start to explore.
@@TheDufresnes Oh yeah!! I’ve been watching for a few years now as you know, won some prizes too. I’m not going to pass up the opportunity to stay at “Sea Casa”. 😎 Right now I’m on the SUV/4x4 hunt with a limited budget. I will be coming up that way and also stopping to visit some other friends in the Jaco area. I’ll put my reservation in when I get things more firmed up. No worries. 😁 I just have to watch one of your restaurant videos to see where I’d like to go for dinner.
@@TheDufresnes I should fit again by then 😅 put on a few lbs since I first received it, but I defiantly brought it with me, walking most places is helping for now, plus the wooden CR coasters I won!!!
I also have done Isla Tortuga. However, It can get crowded because it is a one day tour also from San Jose transportation included (less time on the island though)
I spend a lot of time in Montezuma and playa Samara. Never did this trip But my Zuma tour water taxi to Jaco Made a detour here And it was a very beautiful spot. Zuma tours is excellent. Maybe I will go to Isla Tortuga in December on my way from Jaco to Samara.
Nice!!! 😍I have never been to Isla de Tortuga but heard all about it. ⛱️ Nice to see the setup and the decent prices! 👍 Thanks for going and showing!🌺☺️🌴 That piña colada looked soooo yummy!! 🍍🥥
Good morning, John. It's not our next door neighbour but yes our friends hotel near by has a pool and bar for our guests to use. It is limited to when they are open. We should be starting our own pool at the end of June!
What month was this video taken? What will it be like in July in rainy season? Will the water be clear? Will there be waves? Sunny or overcast? Thanks 😊
Haha yup, crazy that Spanish isn't my native language hey and that there is so much to learn when Learning a second language, also crazy that so many people don't even know any part of a second language. Good job!

I have a trip to Malpais coming up. Any tips for things to explore in the area on a budget?
Is it worth when I live in Germany?
Pura vida very nice 👌

@@TheDufresnes that will be great
When will you come and stay?
How’s the humidity in Costa Rica overall? Also for someone that has asthma and lots of allergies, how is Costa Rica weather for that?
Humidity depends on location in Costa Rica and time of year, there are so many micro climates here. This also goes for allergies
Hi great channel by the way , can we do this tour from uvita ?
Thanks, we are not sure. You'll have to check with a tour company there
😢😢😢😢😢
Is anyone know if they doing any trips from Quepos there?
We just met on the elevator
Pura vida 💪🏽💪🏽
Pura Vida!
I was there too!
What month was this video taken? What will it be like in July in rainy season? Will the water be clear? Will there be waves? Sunny or overcast? Thanks 😊
🤦♀️🙄😂
Yes, rainy, no, April, maybe, and sunny - in no particular order 😊
😂😂😂😂😂😂
Love the video ! Did they ask for passport for the tour? Asking because I’m going to this island and they are asking for our passport for records.
Yes they did, I just sent them via whatsapp
Great video 👍🏻.Any red tide in that area?
It comes and goes
