2-Hour Jet Ski Tour: Flamingo Beach to Honeymoon Beach

Two hours on the water: dolphins, turtles and hidden beaches from Conchal to Honeymoon

A two-hour jet ski tour along Costa Rica's northwest coast, departing from Conchal Beach with a certified bilingual guide. You'll cruise past Brasilito, Flamingo and several smaller beaches, spotting dolphins, turtles and rays, then anchor at Honeymoon Beach for snorkeling on white sand that often feels private. Groups of up to two to ten riders choose their own jet ski count at checkout.

Step-by-step itinerary

Jet ski tour along Costa Rica coast

• Arrive at Honeymoon Beach
• Snorkel and relax on white sand

The experience

Two hours on a jet ski means you cover real distance up the Guanacaste coast. After a safety briefing on the machine, your guide leads you north from Conchal, passing Brasilito and Flamingo Beaches, then continuing along Potrero, Penca, Prieta, Sugar, Danta and Dantita as the shoreline unfolds. The ride itself is the point: you're not watching from a boat, you're steering through the water and setting your own pace alongside the guide.

Wildlife appears as you go. Dolphins, sea turtles, stingrays and occasionally whales move through these waters, and the guide knows where to look and when to slow down. You'll cruise close enough to spot them without the distance of a tour boat, and the jet ski's speed means you can cover the whole stretch in the time a larger group would spend on one beach.

Honeymoon Beach is the final stop: a white-sand cove so quiet that past visitors compare it to the TV show Survivor because often you and your guide are the only ones there. You anchor, snorkel, and rest before heading back. The whole day runs two hours, so it fits alongside other plans without eating the afternoon.

Top questions

What languages is the tour guided in?

Live guide in English and Spanish.

What wildlife might I see on the jet ski tour along Flamingo Beach?

Dolphins, sea turtles, stingrays and occasionally whales move through the waters off the Guanacaste coast. The guide watches for them as you cruise, and the jet ski's speed lets you cover the stretch where they're most likely to appear.

Is Honeymoon Beach really as empty as people say?

Honeymoon Beach is a secluded cove where previous visitors often find themselves and the guide alone on the sand. Its isolation is part of what makes it feel like a private beach, though conditions and timing vary by day.

How many people can go on one jet ski?

You choose at checkout: one jet ski holds up to two riders, two jet skis fit four, three hold six, four hold eight, and five jet skis accommodate up to ten people. Each rider gets their own machine or shares one, depending on the option you pick.

What happens if I've never ridden a jet ski before?

The tour starts with a safety briefing on the jet ski and its features before you leave Conchal Beach. The guide leads the route, and you follow at your own pace. The tour is suitable for all fitness levels.
