About

Built by heart, fueled by stories and run by soul, Dolphin Quest is a jungle family project in the Golfo Dulce region that will always prioritize bringing off-the-beaten-path dwellers that raw, unfiltered and organic jungle adventure - ocean and dolphins included. Pristine, rustic and chocked full of character, this is home to what Nat Geo has called “the planet's most intense biodiversity”, the world's first-ever recorded ocean birth, as well as the original Piedras Blancas (National Park) jungle family - us - and their soul-rocking stories. Let nature heal you through a transformative journey of immersive adventures, harmonious sustainability, and spiritual acceptance.

Getting Here:
-We are located about 30 minutes by boat from Golfito or Puerto Jimenez, and 1.5 hours by boat from Pavones.
-Boat pick-up times are from 10am-5 pm. The earlier, the better to avoid rain. Please let us know your time of arrival at least 3 days before your arrival date.
-Boat transfers: $60 USD each way (total per boat, not per person) from Golfito or Puerto Jiménez, or $350 from Pavones.
-Stays of 3 nights or longer with the meal plan include complimentary round-trip transfers from Golfito or Puerto Jimenez.
-Arrival at our lodge is considered a "wet landing." bring a rain jacket, sandals, and ensure your personal belongings are waterproof. We will provide bags to ensure your suitcases are dry.

Due to the remoteness of our lodge, most of our guests opt for our meal plan. Restaurants or grocery stores are a 30-minute boat ride away ($60 round trip plus additional fees for captain's wait time). Normally only long-term renters or regular local residents consider bringing their own food. We will ask if you are interested in the meal plan ($65 for 3 farm-to-table meals a day) when we receive your booking. If you are considering bringing your own food, please know that the amenities we provide are very basic and consist of limited cooking supplies as well as extremely limited refrigeration.

We will share our list of tours and activities with you once the booking is made. These can be booked in advance or once you arrive.

Come feel nature heal.
