Playas del Coco is a beach and the people who come to the area for vacation are people who want to spend a lot of time on or near the water.  Luckily there is more than just plain old swimming to keep these visitors occupied.  Travelers can enjoy activities on the water including scuba diving and sport fishing, with different opportunities available for different skill levels.  Information on some of these options follows:

  • Scuba Diving – Travelers interested in Scuba Diving will find no shortage of areas to do so during their trip to the Playas del Coco beaches.  Travel agents frequently book diving tours as part of a standard trip.  See http://www.govisitcostarica.com/categ... for more information.
  • Snorkeling – Travelers can obtain information on snorkeling from the same companies who offer scuba diving tours.
  • Sport Fishing – The area is known specifically for its quality sport fishing.  Many companies are located in the area to allow fishers of all skill levels learn who to improve their sport fishing skills.  Anyone can fish in the area but a fishing license will have to be obtained.  Sport fishing companies can assist with this as can tourist information offices in the area.  See http://www.govisitcostarica.com/categ... for additional details.
