Jaco Snorkel Customer Testimonials #53

The tour isn't just what's under the water — it's the whole beach. This one's a little bonus from a Snorkel Jaco morning at Playa Mantas, the secluded white-sand cove about 25 minutes north of Jacó: a tiny hermit crab making its way across the sand. The little surprises like this are part of why guests call it the best snorkel tour Jaco beach has.

Watch a moment from the tour

A close-up of a hermit crab trucking across the sand at Playa Mantas, shell and all. A real, unscripted little moment from a Snorkel Jaco day — the kind of wildlife you spot right on the beach between swims. Sightings like this aren't guaranteed, but the cove is full of life above and below the water.

A day with Snorkel Jaco, in photos

What you see in the clip is exactly what the day feels like: a quiet white-sand cove, a rocky reef just offshore full of fish, and clear, calm water you can wade right into — plus the odd hermit crab or iguana to say hello on the sand. Snorkel with your guide, take your time, and soak up the scenery — that's the easy rhythm of Jaco beach snorkeling.
