SCUBA DIVING PACKAGE IN COCO'S ISLAND

Description:

This scuba diving package in Isla del Coco is the best scuba diving experience possible in Costa Rica. The world renowned French Oceanographer, Jacques Cousteau, even referred to Isla del Coco as “the most beautiful island in the world.”   

La Isla del Coco is a national park under the direction SINAC (the National System of Conservation Areas of Costa Rica) and is one of the world´s most privileged sites for observation of the Natural World, especially marine life.

The trip includes 10 days aboard a boat named “Adventure” where you will enjoy your meals and lodging. It will take approximately 36 hours to arrive at Isla del Coco from Puntarenas, Costa Rica. Once there, you will enjoy four immersions per day: at 8:00am, 11:00 am, 2:00pm and a night dive at 5:30pm. Our six day stay on the island will give even the most experienced diver plenty of dive opportunities to satisfy and exceed his or her expectations.

Our equipment will include compressors with membranes to charge Nitrox tanks for your increased comfort and security. 

Our Dive masters will not overlook even the smallest detail in the informative meeting where they will explain the dive sites, what you can expect to see, safety rules, communication signals, and any other dive related details.   

For each dive we will divide into two groups. We have two boats, with a 9 passenger capacity each. The dive sites are relatively close to each other. Between dives you will be able to enjoy on board snacks (included) and rest while the dive masters prepare the equipment and tanks for the next immersion.   

Our personnel is highly qualified, bilingual, and very knowledgeable of Isla del Coco and the dive sites.
