    Costa Rica

    Costa Rica is a world-class scuba diving destination, offering breathtaking underwater landscapes teeming with marine life. From the rich biodiversity of the Pacific coast to the vibrant reefs of the Caribbean, divers can encounter everything from massive schools of fish to manta rays, sharks, and even migrating whales. The country’s dedication to marine conservation ensures that many of its dive sites remain pristine, making it a paradise for underwater explorers.

    The Pacific side, particularly around Cocos Island and the Bat Islands, is famous for thrilling drift dives and encounters with hammerhead sharks, bull sharks, and large pelagic species. Meanwhile, the Caribbean coast, though less explored, boasts stunning coral formations and an array of colorful reef fish. Whether you’re an experienced diver looking for adrenaline-pumping action or a beginner seeking calm waters and marine beauty, Costa Rica has something to offer for every scuba enthusiast.
