Costa Rica Kayaking Rentals & Tours

Kayaking in Costa Rica is the perfect way for families to get onto the ocean and experience some of the teeming wildlife and scenic beauty of the clear water and islands within an easy paddle of Pura Vida Ride.

 

Pura Vida Ride is located 50 meters from the water's edge at Playa Danta and offers a range of single and double kayak rentals. Our bay was built for kayaking in Costa Rica: it is sheltered from the wind, has near-shore islands within an easy paddle, and generally has small and manageable surf. Kayaking tours in Costa Rica have never been better than what Pura Vida Ride has to offer. Our guided Kayak tours around Playa Danta last 1 – 2 hours. These guided kayak tours are a perfect way to introduce children and families to the amazing natural beauty that surrounds us in a safe, but adventurous manner. Our kayaking tours are guided by experts who know their equipment intimately and more importantly, understand the ocean and the bay.
