    During our pleasant lunch at Las Brisas waiting for our appointed meeting time, we observed the Surfari Del Mar offshore at anchor and wondered who would be taking the place of Captain Jack who, we had learned the evening before, had recently passed away. Much to our surprise, and eventual delight, we were approached by a lovely young lady who introduced herself as Frecia, skipper of the Surfari. While strong winds the previous day had kicked up sediment in the water where we snorkeled making it less than perfect, everything else on the cruise was exceptional – the sailboat itself, the crew (Frecia and her two Argentinian mates), the music playlist, the food and local drinks and the sunset. This was “Pura Vida” at its best! The booking of the cruise through GetMyBoat was easy and without issue.

    That was one of our greatest days spent in Costa Rica. We were an international group of 6 adults and a small child who decided to have a boat trip right the next day. Captain Jack remained available for us till midnight for clarifying the booking details. We had 4-5 hours trip with diving, fishing and a delicious food made onboard included. We were also able to see the sunset from the ocean. The Captain Jack crew - Pressia and the boys are so lovely. We talked and laugh a lot with them. What a prefect day it was.:) I highly recommend you to reserve one day from your vacation and go for it.

    Cannot say enough great things about our trip. Boat was lovely and actually sailed a lot. The food was enjoyed by everyone and the coffee was delicious. Got to see dolphins swimming with the boat and had a great snorkeling experience. Best outing of our 2 week trip in Costa Rica.

    Our sailing trip was fantastic. We were a tough crew with five (cranky) kids, but Captain Jack and his crew were super patient, understanding and provided the best experience for us. We ate delicious food, swam in beautiful waters and sailed through the sunset. Thank you!

    When I asked my teenagers how they liked the trip, my oldest said "It was Magical, like something out of a movie"--I have to agree. The crew made it very special and everyone was so kind and friendly. The lunch they served was prepared by Jack's wife and it was so delicious-seriously one of our favorite meals in Costa Rica. Sailing back with music and the setting sun was absolutely fabulous. It's one of the highlights of our trip. My kids still talk about it. Highly recommend!
