About
Tour operator in Agujitas running Corcovado day trips, Caño Island snorkeling, and scuba. Guide Gaby, a former middle-school teacher, is singled out in multiple reviews for her warmth with kids and deep knowledge of Costa Rica; guides Samuel and Claudio also earn praise. Snorkelers list turtles, white-tip sharks, rays, and even false killer whales, with whales and dolphins spotted from the boat and lunch served on the beach. One experienced diver offers useful expectation-setting: Caño can be crowded with low visibility on some days, the island has no shade or chairs, and flights to Drake Bay are unreliable enough that it is smart not to schedule a tour for your first morning.

We used Picolina for our day trip to Corcovado National Park and for a snorkeling trip. The company is great. From beginning to end we were taken care of and have absolutely no complaints. Our tour guide for both was Gabriel (Gaby). She is one of the best guides we have ever had. She used to teach middle school and lives to share her knowledge of Costa Rica. She is phenomenal with kids and has a warm, easy going nature. Truly a pleasure to have gotten to know her. I would see if you can ask to have have Gaby as your tour guide. You won’t regret it.
Fantastic snorkeling! Samuel was a wonderful guide. We saw many turtles, gorgeous fish, a white tip shark, ray and false killer whales! A delicious lunch on the idyllic Beach capped off a magical adventure!
We went to cano island for snorkeling and it was a great experience. We saw sharks, rays, lot of fishs, whales and dolphins on the way. The two guides were really nice and pro.
