The most AMAZING experience…not to be missed!

Published on Nov, 2024

The MOST amazing part of our trip to Boquete! From the moment we got into the van, to the narrated drive, boat trip to the island and our 4 hour island stay the memories just kept on being made! Our guide was excellent and he and the boat captain worked hard and found whales AND dolphins! Guide also set up a beautiful lunch, had all the gear (noodles, paddle board etc) pointed out the wildlife, and overall just made sure we all had the best of times! Highly recommend this trip!!!!

Have a spectacular tour with Boquete Outdoor Adventures. We did!

Published on Aug, 2024

Ed was our guide and provided us a thoroughly delightful day of whale watching, beach relaxing, snorkeling and tropical lunch. He is a true professional and always provided us details on what we were seeing and explained the whale activities and got us some awesome closeup photos! We highly recommend him and his company. The entire day was well organized, energetically presented and fun from start to finish.

Best day of our holiday

Published on Aug, 2024

This was our favorite day of our whole holiday . Ed was a great guide and we were extremely lucky to see baby humpback whales jumping out of the water on our return as well as a pod of dolphins and other whales on the way there. The 4 hours on the isla bolanos was brilliant snorkelling and paddleboarding. Ed prepared a tasty lunch. We also had access to thebphtots and videos ed took on the day.

Whales whales!

Published on Sep, 2023

This experience was amazing!! We had the nature's good luck of seeing three sets of whales and babies! And on top of that getting to go to a wonderful beach with snorkeling, hammocks, snacks, and drinks-a wonderful adventure that also was relaxing.

Beautiful creatures in a beautiful, tropical setting!

Published on Jul, 2023

Beautiful beach and water, friendly staff, and AMAZINGLY BEAUTIFUL HUMPBACK WHALE FAMILIES! Being able to see and hear them felt like a privilege to be in their presence.
