Tortuga Equador

Punta Argentina is one of the most popular dive sites in Coco, and well deserved. Around this pinnacle you can find everything from big encounters to tiny macro life. Depths range from 10m/30ft to 27m/95ft. Look above you not to miss the big schools of fish!

Located northwest of Playa Coco, La Tortuga gets its name from the turtle-shaped island above it, as well as a turtle-shaped cement block connected to the mooring line. This is a great dive site with many routes and a small wreck.

Playpen is a great dive site with interesting rock formations and marinelife. In the shallow areas we find a wide variety of schools of tropical fish and lots of invertebrates like octopus, arrow crabs, harlequin shrimp and seahorses. In the deeper area white tip reef sharks and a variety of rays can be found.

Estudiantes means students in Spanish. This shallow dive site is perfect to bring students and beginner divers, because of the sandy bottom, easy conditions and calm water. Also great for more experienced divers, because of the abundance of life.

Sopresa is a pinnacle starting at around 16m/50ft depth and going down to 30m/100ft. Because there’s no shallow part in this dive site, only advanced divers can dive here. Sorpresa means surprise, which is explained if you dive here multiple times. The temperature and visibility are always a surprise.

Chiliguaro is a small dive site of the peninsula between Playas del Coco en Playa Hermosa. The rocky formation are a perfect hiding spot for macro creatures, octopus and turtles.

Memories is a fishing vessel that sunk in Coco Bay. The boat is too small to penetrate (about 25m long), but is big enough to enjoy the huge amount of juvenile fish seeking cover inside of the wreck. Look inside the cabin and see the captain’s chair, admire the nudibranch or scorpionfish, or just enjoy the view.

Corridas is at the corner of Coco Bay. The site consists of 2 rocks/low pinnacles in a sandy area. The 2 rocks are very close and can both be done easily in 1 dive.

The sandy bottom of the bay in Coco is great for training in the calm conditions. This is a great place to practice rescue skills from the boat, or practice navigation.

Punta Ballena (Whale Point) is located between Playa Hermosa and Playa Panama. The dive site is the underwater extension of the peninsula separating both beaches. Great place to see lots of eagle rays and stingrays and many schooling fish.
