Spinner Dolphin Conservation in Costa Rica

Off the Osa Peninsula fish swim with thousands of Spinner Dolphins in this marine heaven. Considered to be one of the most cetacean-rich areas in the world, the marine life here is abundant with pods of pan-tropic spotted, bottlenose, spinner and common dolphins as well as humpback, pilot, sperm and blue whales, giant manta rays, sea turtles and more.

Through this vast, borderless, open-ocean ecosystem swim large pods of spinner dolphins. They live here in unprotected waters. They gather in startling numbers to greet you with an acrobatic performance. Mark Twain wrote about these beautiful free spirits, and scientists have been studying them for years.

Hundreds of dolphins breach out 9 feet in the air, twisting their body into curves or spins up to 7 times in a single leap! Feeling adventurous? Jump in and swim along with wild dolphins in their natural home! Memories made here are unforgettable for the rest of your life.

Spotter planes, luxury vessels, biologists and expert marine guides make this experience extraordinary. Enjoy a scenic coastal flight, board your private sport-fishing luxury yacht, transfer to skiff boats, sub-wings and other water “toys”.
