Panache Sailing Catamaran Tour
This is an option for a low key catamaran tour. It sets sail from Playa Flamingo. The tour is both fun and relaxing, with beautiful views of the Guanacaste coastline.
The boat takes you off shore approximately five miles to a cove surrounded by small islands and their exquisite beaches. Here, you can snorkel, kayak, or paddle board in the calm bay where you’re likely to see fish and other marine life.
The crew prepares a delicious meal of sandwich wraps (fish or chicken), guacamole, beans, pico de gallo, chips and dips, fresh fruit, and cookies. Water, soft drinks, and an open bar with cocktails, beer, and wine are also included.
The vibe is family friendly and the crew is super fun. There’s also the chance of seeing dolphins, turtles, and even whales, depending on the season! When we did the tour in January, we were lucky enough to spot two humpback whales.
Panache has several catamarans (40′-46′) that hold up to 30-40 passengers. They are fully equipped with a large awning for shade and bathrooms on board.
When they stop for swimming/snorkeling, the crew puts out a “lily pad,” which is a big float for lounging in the water.

The Panache team was awesome. Great service, great energy, very chill and fun group with very few children. They provided drink service and ensured no one ever had an empty cup. No premixed beverages and the food was delicious. Special recognition goes to the mango salsa. And of course the views of the ocean and sunset were amazing and jumping off the catamaran was a fun touch. The only downside is the water was not clear enough for snorkeling. 9/10 but still highly recommend.

We had an amazing time on the Panache Catamaran. This was one of the best excursions we have done. The whole staff was friendly, the transportation went smooth, the food was great and the Open bar was wonderful. We did some good snorkeling and saw a great sunset. I would highly recommend this tour.

Our family really enjoyed the sailing tour with Panache! Booking through Twoweeksincostarica was quick and easy and Jenn made sure our dietary restrictions were accommodated. We had a delicious plant based meal specially prepared for our family by the awesome chef on board. Our kids (3 and 6) loved snorkeling and even got to get up close and touch an octopus that one of the crew members found. We also saw lots of colorful fish and urchins. It was well worth the drive up from Tamarindo.
