Overview

Skip the crowds and discover a side of Balandra few ever see—quiet, wild, and only accessible by water. We created this full-day snorkel and paddleboard tour to reveal the hidden sides of this iconic bay.

Feel the wind in your hair as you make your way to Balandra, watching the abundant birdlife as we navigate past nearby islands. Marvel at the color of the water as we arrive at Balandra Bay and make our way to our secluded beach spot for the day. Experience our super-fun mega-paddelboards while exploring the least known and most beautiful side of the bay - the mangrove.

Savor homemade ceviche on a secluded stretch of beach, where the calm invites you to float, explore, or simply soak it all in.

And as a grand finale, feel the wilderness of the sea lion colony at San Rafaelito reef, cooling off and snorkeling with sea lions, fish and invertebrates. Come explore Balandra with us, and see why this place is more than just beautiful—it’s pure magic.
