Great way to spend our first afternoon in San Jaun del Sur! Right away the ship crew made sure we had yummy Rum drinks and they kept them flowing all afternoon. The cerviche and guacamole were fabulous. Captain Zach and crew were super friendly and I loved our private swimming cove that they took us to.

This catamaran sailing trip was the perfect way to start off our girls trip to Nicaragua! Captain Zach and his crew of two local guys were more than accommodating. I have heard that some "sailing" companies don't even put up their sails, but we definitely did on both the way out and back. There were a few dolphins that swam... More

Maybe the best day ever. Zach and crew are wonderful. The ceviche and rum are worth the $60, let alone the sail and dolphin s. do it.

We were so lucky to have this experience in Nicaragua! The boat was lovely, and the crew was phenomenal. The cruise along the shore was so relaxing and a great way to appreciate the coast. Playa Blanca was stunning! Such a perfect swimming oasis. I would go on this cruise everyday :). The people we met on the cruise were... More

My voyage on Captain Zach's catamaran has definitely been one of the best days on my trek through Central America! Zach and his crew were welcoming from the moment we arrived at the port. After setting sail we were immediately offered delicious Mai Tais, which never got to empty before we were offered another drink. We sailed for about a... More

Went on a half day trip on Zaks catamaran while in San Juan and had an awesome time!! You get a great view of the coastline and an afternoon of drinking and eating some amazing ceviche! Zak and his crew worked really hard to make sure everyone had an enjoyable experience. I would highly recommend checking him out!!

We had an amazing excursion with Zach and his crew. Our all day trip began with a rum drink and comfortable spot on the front of the boat. We had more drinks and snacks before reaching the private beach area where we swam and found shells. Lunch on our return was delicious tacos and more drinks. Be warned if you... More

Went on the full-day sail out of San Juan. Well worth the full-day option. The crew was fantastic...very fun & accommodating, and they made sure everyone was having a fabulous time. Captain Zach was great - he had plenty of great information to share about the country and about sailing. We were fortunate enough to see whales and dolphins on... More
