Why Choose a Romantic Sailing Tour in Costa Rica with Mowana?
A romantic sailing tour in Costa Rica offers couples the freedom to discover the Guanacaste coast at their own pace. Imagine warm tropical air, the Pacific Ocean around you and the person you chose to share this private experience with.
Departing from Playa Flamingo, your tour takes place aboard Mowana, our fully renovated 33-foot Buccaneer trimaran. The boat is reserved exclusively for your group—no strangers and no shared charter—just the two of you, our crew and the Pacific.
How to Plan Your Romantic Sailing Tour in Costa Rica
Choose the right time — A morning tour offers a peaceful start to the day, while a sunset tour adds the magic of golden-hour sailing over the Pacific. For couples who want more time together on the water, the full-day experience takes you from morning all the way to sunset.

Enjoy activities together — Snorkeling, paddleboarding, fishing or simply relaxing side by side on Mowana's giant trampolines: you decide how you want to spend your time.
Bring the essentials — Swimwear, sun protection, light clothing and a camera or phone for those unforgettable moments on the water.
Talk to the crew — Our French-Costa Rican crew adapts the experience to your group and the conditions of the day.
Breathtaking Scenery Along the Guanacaste Coastline
From Playa Flamingo, sailing along the Guanacaste coast reveals secluded coves, rocky shorelines and beautiful beaches that look completely different when seen from the Pacific.
Playa Conchal — Famous for its turquoise water and shoreline made largely of tiny shell fragments, it is one of Guanacaste's most recognizable beaches.
Playa del Amor — A secluded coastal spot reached from the sea and one of our favorite places to anchor when conditions are suitable.
Playa Penca — A beautiful white-sand beach overlooking the calm waters of Potrero Bay.
Catalina Islands — Rocky islands offshore from the Guanacaste coast, surrounded by open Pacific water and marine life.
Wildlife can make the journey even more memorable. Dolphins, sea turtles, rays and tropical fish may be encountered along the way, but every trip is different and wildlife sightings are never guaranteed.

Gourmet moments at sea
No romantic sailing experience is complete without good food and a drink to enjoy together. Aboard Mowana, a fresh Costa Rican BBQ meal is prepared on board and served as part of your all-inclusive experience.
Unlimited drinks are included throughout the tour, with beer, rum, soft drinks and water available on board.
Whether you are sharing lunch after a snorkeling stop or raising a glass as the sun begins to set over the Pacific, everything is designed so you can simply relax and enjoy the moment together.
Best Time for a Romantic Sailing Tour in Costa Rica
The dry season from December to April generally offers sunny weather, warm temperatures and excellent conditions for sailing along the Guanacaste coast. Morning tours are ideal for couples who prefer calmer conditions, while afternoon departures offer the opportunity to watch the Pacific sunset from the water.
Private sailing tours are also available during the green season. The Guanacaste coastline becomes especially lush, although the sailing route and anchoring location may be adjusted according to the weather and sea conditions.
What to Bring on Your Romantic Sailing Tour
Bring reef-safe sunscreen, sunglasses, a hat, swimwear, a towel and a light cover-up. A waterproof bag can also be useful for protecting your phone and personal belongings.
Snorkeling equipment, paddleboards, fishing equipment, unlimited drinks and a freshly prepared Costa Rican meal are included on board, allowing you to relax and enjoy your private experience together.
