Diving in Pacific Coast

One of the best things about diving off the Pacific Coast of Costa Rica is encounters with the big stuff!  It's not unusual to see whales and dolphins on the trip out to your dive site, you might even get to see them while you're diving!

The diving off Playa del Coco in Guanacaste offers a vast number of options including the Catalina Islands, known for its hugs schools of fish, sharks and giant mantas.  The Bat Islands are also close but the season here is only from May to Sept and due to strong currents only recommended for experienced divers. Bull Sharks and mantas are common around the islands.

The striking volcanic landscape around the Manuel Antonio National Park allows for some great cavern diving, or exploring the few wrecks around Tortuga Island if that's more your interest.  Herradura also has some interesting sites in the bay and good for beginners.  

Visit the protected reserve around Caño Island, accessed from Drake Bay, with some of the best diving and clearest waters on the Pacific Coast.  Sea life is abundant so keep your eyes out for turtles, sharks, whale sharks, rays.  

You can spend weeks discovering the joys of diving the Pacific Coast of Costa Rica, you might even capture that rare and wonderful photo of a whale jumping out of the water!  We can only dream, maybe yours will come true.
