{"key":"mia-50","blocks":[{"section":"intro","body":"Mia 50 is the boat you book when the day is about the water rather than the vessel. Fifty feet, a deck built for spreading out, and a kit list that means nobody has to hire anything on the dock: paddleboards, snorkel gear and a floating mat are already aboard. Crew and refreshments are included on every charter and lunch comes with the full day. The Papagayo coast does the rest."},{"section":"setting","heading":"The Papagayo Coast","body":"Departures are from Playa del Coco marina, a short walk from the town. Tortuga Island is about an hour out by boat and is the standard full-day anchorage, with the reef stops along the way that make the snorkel gear worth having. Liberia airport is roughly forty minutes inland by road, which makes the boat reachable on an arrival or departure day without a second night's stay."},{"section":"outdoors","heading":"On Deck","body":"The deck is the reason the boat is rated for up to twenty guests on the day, and it is laid out for a group that wants shade and sun on the same trip rather than choosing one. Boarding for swimming is from the stern. The floating mat goes in at anchor and tends to stay in for the rest of the afternoon.","bullets":["Spacious deck rated for up to twenty guests","Floating mat deployed at anchor","Stern access for swimming","Shade and open deck both available"]},{"section":"interiors","heading":"Below","body":"Three cabins and two heads below deck. On a day charter the cabins earn their place as somewhere to change, get out of the sun for an hour, or put a child down after lunch, which is a more honest description of how they get used than calling them staterooms."},{"section":"activities","heading":"In the Water","body":"Paddleboards, snorkel gear and a floating mat are carried as standard and the crew set them up at anchor. The reef stops on the Tortuga run are the snorkelling, and the paddleboards get used in the calm water inside the anchorage. Nothing here needs to be hired separately or booked ahead."},{"section":"staff-service","heading":"Crew and Catering","body":"Crew are included on every charter and handle the navigation, the anchorages and the water toys. Refreshments come with both the half day and the full day, and lunch is included on the full day, so a full-day booking is genuinely all-in rather than a base rate with a catering line added later."},{"section":"ideal-for","heading":"Best For","body":null,"bullets":["Families who want the gear already aboard","Snorkelling days out to Tortuga Island","Relaxed group cruises rather than speed runs","Charters where lunch and refreshments should be included"]}]}
