FAQ

Here are some educational videos from Costa Cetacea chief guide Shawn Larkin.  The first, used to educate guides and biologists, quickly shows you the most commonly seen whales and dolphins of Costa Rica.  Next is Pacific spotted dolphins bubble netting, the only known documentation of this incredible behavior.  Then comes an introduction to Costa Rica's pilot whales from Talamanca and Osa.  Next meet the smallest whales of all, dwarf sperm whales, so far only documented off Manzanillo, Talamanca.  Then take a look at the wild jumping spotted dolphins of the Osa.  Check them out and tell us what you think.  Check here soon for even more cool marine videos.
