Scuba Diving in Bocas del Toro
Activity Details
At the indicated time, we'll meet at 3rd Street to start our adventure through the waters that bathe Bocas del Toro. Divers, ready?
We’ll begin with a brief introduction and provide you with all the necessary diving equipment. If you’re a beginner, you’ll enjoy a guided practice session in shallow water to get comfortable with the basics. For advanced divers, a quick review of the day’s plan is all that’s needed before we set sail!
We’ll board the boat and head offshore, cruising among islands and flocks of tropical birds native to the area. Depending on the weather and sea conditions, our first stop could be Hospital Point, Coral Garden, The Wreck, or Punta Caracol.
Once we’re ready and arrive at the dive site, we’ll begin a dive lasting between 45 and 55 minutes. You’ll feel the peaceful silence surround you as the vibrant reefs of the Panamanian Caribbean welcome you into their underwater world.
Beneath the water, we’ll be surrounded by colorful fish, sea sponges, sea fans, and coral formations that look like underwater masterpieces. With a bit of luck, we might spot graceful rays gliding by, elusive seahorses, or even sea turtles. The marine life in Bocas del Toro is truly unforgettable!
Then, we'll return to the boat and take a break, relax, drink some water and enjoy some snacks.
Afterward, we'll head to the second dive site, which will also last between 45 and 55 minutes. New coral formations, schools of fish and dense marine flora will be the perfect finishing touch to the experience.
Finally, we'll return to the starting point, where we'll say goodbye after 4 hours of activity.
