Fishing Charters
Costa Rica is one of the best places in the world to enjoy a great day of bluewater angling, an opinion formed by Captain Skeet during his many years of travel. The year-round warm climate, calm seas, and the abundance of fish combine with Costa Rica’s stable economy to make this an easy first choice for anglers and adventurers.
Canopy Tours, Zip Line
The tour goes inland to the best canopy and monkey habitat in the area.
Sunset Cruises
A great way to see some of the offshore islands up close. Be prepared to get your feet wet as Flamingo does not have a marina and you are "shuttled" to the cruise vessel from the beach via a ponga.
Just Plain Relaxing
Whether a morning walk on Playa Conchal, an evening drink at Lulu's in Playa Avallanas, or just plain relaxing at your own private pool, doing nothing might be a welcome change.
