Tambor to Uvita via Taxi Boat – Scenic and Efficient Coastal Transfer
Fast, Coordinated Travel from the Nicoya Peninsula to Costa Rica’s South Pacific Coast
Traveling from Tambor to Uvita via taxi boat and shared shuttle offers a time-saving, scenic alternative to a long overland journey. This coordinated transfer combines a high-speed water taxi across the Gulf of Nicoya with comfortable ground transportation, making it an ideal choice for travelers heading to the South Pacific region, including Uvita’s beaches, Marino Ballena National Park, and surrounding areas.
Taxi Boat from Tambor to Herradura
The journey starts with a short ground transfer from your hotel in Tambor to the boat launch near Paquera. There, you’ll board a professionally operated, high-speed taxi boat for a 45-minute ride across the Gulf of Nicoya to Herradura, located just north of Jacó. Along the way, enjoy breathtaking coastal views and the chance to see dolphins or sea birds.
Ground Shuttle from Herradura to Uvita
Upon arrival in Herradura, a shared or private shuttle will continue the journey south along the Pacific coast to Uvita. This leg takes approximately 4 to 5 hours, depending on traffic and road conditions. The ride is conducted in air-conditioned, modern vehicles with bilingual, licensed drivers who prioritize comfort and safety.
Advance Reservation Required
Due to limited seating and the need for seamless coordination between boat and shuttle segments, a confirmed reservation is required in advance. Early booking is highly recommended, especially during peak seasons.
