Dante’s Water Sports operates as a 100% drug-and alcohol-free business

Dante has been living a clean lifestyle for years and is an active member of the local community of prevention and treatment of substance abuse, with a zero tolerance policy for all employees, and does not permit anyone of its workers to be under the influence of any kind of drugs and/or alcohol when at work (and preferably not in private either). This is an important reason, amongst many, behind why so many of the major hotels, private homes, and tourist agencies in the Manuel Antonio area and beyond have chosen to work with Dante’s Water Sports and continue to trust us with their clients, both adults, and children of all ages.
