Item Description
This is a fabulous, last minute opportunity to visit one of the most remote, pristine and wild places on earth.
Cocos Island is both a Costa Rican National Park and a United Nations World Heritage Site. This island is a magnet for divers because of the walls of hammerhead sharks, white tip, galapagos, black tips, silver tips and even the occasional whale and tiger sharks. Other underwater attractions are dolphin, turtles and schools of jack fish that are so thick they can block out sunlight entirely, until once again the light floods in as the school parts. Recent trip reports include high adrenaline action and you do not want to miss it. Cocos Island is hopping right now!
Topside the island is daunting, with sheer cliffs of green that plummet hundreds of feet into the ocean. Depending upon the season, circumnavigation of the island will often reveal over 300 waterfalls against the dramatic landscape.
