    Eduardo Molina

    Steward

    My name is Eduardo Molina. I work as a steward on Okeanos II and love my job and helping you feel comfortable while onboard .

    Since I was born in Puntarenas, next to the ocean I love swimming and diving and  spend most of my time around the sea. Another hobby I love is mountain biking and when I have time, I try to go with a group of cyclist friends of mine to discover some hidden trails here in Costa Rica.

    Of course, as a Costa Rican, I also love football and you are most welcome to play with us when we disembark on the island as sometimes we do little matches between guests and crew.

    Looking forward to serving you.
