You will leave from the Dive Center towards the first dive point. It will take approximately 10 minutes to reach the first diving point. Before moving on to the second dive site, you will have a refreshing drink to enjoy. Upon arrival to the second diving point, you are free to explore before returning back to the dive center.
Set on the northern Pacific coast, Playas del Coco (El Coco to locals) is one of the oldest beach communities in Guanacaste. Set in a volcanic landscape, this section of Costa Rica differs dramatically from the southern shores – and is significantly quieter. Beyond great dive sties, activities in El Coco largely revolve around exploring the surrounding tropical dry forest. This ecosystem is among the most threatened in Costa Rica and again, vastly different from the southern jungles. When not diving, spend days hiking through the forest and setting out into the ocean on a rented kayak, before joining the vibrant nightlife.
Diving off Playas del Coco gives you the opportunity to swim through large quantities of volcanic rock. While coral remains limited and the visibility isn’t great, the abundance of marine life and large schools of fish certainly makes up for it. The region is known for copious amounts of puffer fish, a number of nudibranchs, manta rays and white tip sharks.
You may visit the following dive sites: Punta Gorda, Baty Point, or Rocket Point
*Is important to know that the equipment rent for each dive will be $20 for the full rental of the scuba diving equipment. This will be paid one day before in our office in the Caribbean street of the Hotel, or in the Water Sports Center.
