TRAVEL & ADVENTURE

The Under water World of the C

C

osta Rica’s Caribbean has hidden gems underwater that can be enjoyed snorkeling or diving. Plan your trip and experience it. Snorkeling can be done by almost anyone. Even those who cannot swim or are not comfortable swimming can use the foam noodles or life vest. Although you see much more diving down deeper, the views from the surface are also amazing and enjoyable.

Many places in Costa Rica are good for diving or snorkeling; however, the Caribbean is particularly amazing with its clear water and white sands that enhance the views by letting the coral and rock forms stand out more clearly. All you need is a mask, fin and optional life vest. Please buddy-dive as there are risks that you might encounter that your buddy can assist if needed.

FEATURED ADVENTURE

There is such an indescribable sense of freedom walking from the shore into the vibrant blue Caribbean water. The reef from Playa Cocles to Playa Chiquita is very close to shore in a shallow spot. It harbors many caves and a bounty of fish, langostinos, octopus and small colorful fish.
