ABOUT

Founded by ocean adventurer Miguel Sanchez, and with the invaluable help of Chalio & Mario, skilled craftsmen with decades of experience building fishing boats in this Pacific coastal town, Outrigger Canoe Costa Rica brings the heart of Playas Del Coco to life through artisanal handcrafted outrigger canoes. Born and raised in the coastal community, our founders seamlessly blend maritime traditions with modern craftsmanship, creating vessels that not only navigate the ocean waters but also embody the spirit of Costa Rica.
CRAFTSMANSHIP
In the Coco artisanal way, we take immense pride in the artistry and precision of our work. Every outrigger canoe we produce is a testament to the dedication, skill, and love that goes into crafting vessels that not only perform seamlessly but also stand as symbols of our commitment to excellence.
SUSTAINABILITY
As stewards of the ocean, we are dedicated to minimizing our environmental impact. From incorporating eco-friendly materials into our designs to promoting responsible boating practices, we strive to ensure that our outrigger canoes contribute to the preservation of the marine ecosystems we call home.
COMMUNITY
Rooted in our commitment to creating opportunities for the local community, our partners Chalio and Mario share in the profits of our common venture. Aligning our actions with the sustainability of both our business and the environment, we strive to ensure that our outrigger canoes contribute to the preservation of the marine ecosystems we call home.
LEGACY
Inspired by the maritime traditions echoing through our coastal heritage, our outrigger canoes embody a unique fusion of cultures. Originating from Hawaii, we respect the roots of this craftsmanship while weaving in the rich maritime history of Costa Rica. Our designs seamlessly combine traditional Hawaiian elements with the essence of our own coastal identity, creating a harmonious narrative that reflects a shared cultural legacy.
ADVENTURE
We believe in the transformative power of the sea and the thrill of exploration. Our outrigger canoes are crafted to inspire and enable adventurous spirits to connect with the ocean, offering a unique and exhilarating way to experience the beauty and excitement that the open waters provide.
