Diving Caņo
Island
Enjoy world class scuba diving with our
professional PADI Certified Instructors and Divemasters contracted with
local suppliers. Caņo Island offers the novice and experienced diver an
excellent diving venue. Diving in the waters here will bring you
face-to-face with a wide variety of underwater marine life. Glide through
the water with a giant, manta ray or observe the huge schools of
barracuda, jacks, and rays that frequent the area. Swimming side-by-side
with a sleek but non-aggressive reef shark will certainly send a tingle of
excitement down your spine. If you're lucky, you may even witness an
awe-inspiring whale shark!. All this makes Caņo Island one of the best
dive locations found anywhere in Costa Rica!.

Sherwood Scuba and Henderson Aquatics.
