Coiba National Park is a UNESCO World Heritage site and one of the top dive destinations in the Eastern Pacific. The marine reserve covers over 430,000 hectares and harbors an extraordinary concentration of marine life — whale sharks, manta rays, humpback whales (June–October), hammerhead sharks, sea turtles, and vibrant coral reefs.
We partner with certified PADI dive operators in Santa Catalina to offer:
• Discover Scuba — introductory dives for first-timers (no certification needed)
• PADI Open Water certification — 3-4 day course with theory, pool, and ocean dives
• Guided fun dives — for certified divers, 2-tank boat trips to Coiba’s best sites
Dive sites include Faro, Machete, Shark Point, and the famous underwater pinnacles of Iglesia. Visibility averages 15-25 meters, with water temperatures of 26-29°C.
Base yourself at Hotel Hibiscus Garden for early boat departures from Santa Catalina, or plan a dive trip for your group with our retreat packages.
