Best day with phenomenal crew
We booked this on short notice and it was such an amazing experience! The crew picked us up on the beach 6 minutes from our house and took us to the catamaran. We then settled in for an hour peaceful ride to a private island with a gorgeous beach. Once anchored, we were offered snorkeling gear, a floating mat, and loads of pool noodles. Some of us just floated near the boat, others were taken to the beach on the shuttle boat, and others swam/snorkeled to see beautiful fish. The crew was beyond attentive and fun. It was open bar so you were offered drinks throughout the time, even bringing the folks on the beach pina coladas. When that was all done, we had the most delicious lunch set up for us along with the freshest homemade salsa I have ever had. And I am a salsa snob! The lunch consisted of delicious chicken, cooked vegetables, rice and beans and homemade cabbage salad. They also offered us fruit and snacks throughout our trip. We then started our way back and saw mating turtles. We were told that sometimes you saw dolphins and whales. I cannot say enough about this experience. The views were spectacular and the crew was top notch. They even had a fishing pole set up and my friend was able to reel in a tuna….it was a 4 hour tour which was plenty. We got back to the beach and were able to enjoy the rest of the day. If this sis something you are interested in doing, book with these folks…..

The best decision of our trip.
I was suspicious. My wife was approached on the beach by a very nice man named Diego. He had several pages of excursions in a laminated book and my wife inquired about a morning cruise. We were worried about the weather later in the week and Diego assured us it was a great choice. We payed a $100 deposit and were scheduled to be in Tamarindo the next day @7:30 am. This was the BEST decision we made in our time in Tamarindo. We had the large boat with just our group of 14 student photographers/college students. We enjoyed a nice taxi to the boat and a 45 minute cruise to crystal clear waters where we snorkled, paddle boarded, swam, took in the sun and had just the best time. A delicious chicken lunch was provided and our captain and chef were so helpful and nice. Find Diego. Book this excursion. +506 8878 5762. This is Diego’s direct number. We contacted him later in the week for an ATV tour. He was great.

Beautiful morning sail
An outstanding morning sail. Staff were excellent. Dolphins followed us out and I caught a large tuna. The beach was beautiful and the lunch was excellent. On the way back we saw two turtles mating at sea. The trip could not have been better.

Why this scores 59
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
TIMAROUBA Private Morning Catamaran in Tamarindo: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Tamarindo.
How much does TIMAROUBA Private Morning Catamaran in Tamarindo cost?
+
Prices start at $120 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Tamarindo usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does TIMAROUBA Private Morning Catamaran in Tamarindo take?
+
Plan for about 4 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Tamarindo is not rushed.
Is TIMAROUBA Private Morning Catamaran in Tamarindo worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 59 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 4 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Tamarindo, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule TIMAROUBA Private Morning Catamaran in Tamarindo?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is TIMAROUBA Private Morning Catamaran in Tamarindo suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 4-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book TIMAROUBA Private Morning Catamaran in Tamarindo?
+
Around 1 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Tamarindo can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Tamarindo and add a light layer if any part of the 4-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does TIMAROUBA Private Morning Catamaran in Tamarindo start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Tamarindo within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Tamarindo?
+
On Outty we rank every Tamarindo experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Surf Lesson in Tamarindo - Stand Up or Your Money Back!, Sunset Catamaran & Snorkeling Tour in Playa Flamingo, Fundive Catalina Islands (2 dives, only for certified divers). The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Tamarindo?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Tamarindo?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
