Amazing Swim with Dolphin experience

Published on May, 2024

This was such an incredible experience! We were picked up around 6:30 in the morning, then got a boat and went looking for Dolphins. All the similar tours work together to help find the Dolphins, and we lucked out and were able to find at least 500 Dolphins just swimming and frolicking together. Then they gave us life vests and snorkels and told us to jump in! The dolphins keep their distance but swim and jump around you. It was amazing. It also felt very respectful of the wildlife itself.

We had an amazing trip!

We had the most incredible trip- we saw so many dolphins. Amazing captain Charlie. Thank you so much

Must do in Puerto!

Published on Feb, 2024

Highly recommend! We saw 4 whales and hundreds of dolphins, so magical. The boat driver was very skilled. If you get seasick take tablets though, since it’s a bumpy ride. It was so beautiful on the water in the morning.

Great Experience!

We we went on two tours with Eco Adventures - releasing baby turtles and Dolphin watching tour - both of which we greatly enjoyed. Efrain and his brother were fantastic at communicating about both tours and showed up on time with smiles on their faces. Very well run and reliable tour agency that I would highly recommend! The Dolphin Watching Tour was particularly memorable - we saw hundreds of dolphins, a whale and some large sea turtles!

Brilliant tour operators

Published on Jan, 2024

Eco Adventures are wonderful! Super-responsive on WhatsApp, with superb staff. We went on a dolphin and whale-watching tour with them, and our boat captain was hugely knowledgeable - we were often the only boat with a school of dolphins, which gave us plenty of opportunity to jump in and swim with them in an experience we’ll never forget. We took a tour down the coast with Juan Carlos, who was an excellent guide, and really responsive to what we needed. A really brilliant company working in a really responsible and kind way.
