Cocos Island, Costa Rica, March 24 - April 3, 2012
Offering one the single finest big animal diving experiences in the world. COCOS ISLAND (TREASURE ISLAND) is an ocean oasis lying isolated 300 miles southwest of continental Costa Rica, where it concentrates the marine life from many hundreds of miles around. For centuries the hideout of pirates and adventurers, Cocos is recognized today as one the world's largest uninhabited island and, to many, the most beautiful as well as one of the last truly wild places in nature. It has been granted World Heritage status because of the quantity of marine life to be found in its vicinity. According to the February 1996 issue of Scuba Diving Magazine, Isla Del Coco is second in the Americas for the amount of larger animal species inhabiting its waters.
The waters around the island offer the excitement of diving with schools of Hammerhead Sharks, giant Manta rays, giant Moray eels, bottle nose dolphins, and the occasional whale shark! Additionally, you will see Moorish Idols, large schools of jack and tuna, Creole fish, lobsters, octopus and other various reef life. Silky sharks, silver tips, sailfish, marlin, and green turtles are also abundant in the area. The key word to describe Coco is ACTION!
Thanks to the breathtaking marine life in its waters, Cocos Island was named one of the best 10 scuba diving spots in the world by PADI (Professional Association of Diving Instructors) and a "must do" according to diving experts. The island is located in one of the most extensive and rich reefs of the south eastern Pacific. The famous oceanographer Jacques Cousteau visited the island several times and in 1994 called it "the most beautiful island in the world".
