MV Undersea Hunter

The evening before boat departure, an Undersea Hunter representative will fax you to confirm your pick up time the next day. The evening is at your leisure.

Day 1

The following day, generally between 8am and 1pm you will be picked up from certain hotels and transferred by bus to Puntarenas where you will board the vessel. The drive takes about 2 and half hours, and gives you a chance to view the lush forest and rich farmland of the region.
Due to occasional low tides the boats may need to depart from the pier earlier in the day. Should this occur, you will be transferred by skiff to the vessel. When all passengers have arrived on board, the vessel will take a 32 to 36 hour cruise out to Cocos Island.

Day 2

This will be a travel day. There will be time to arrange dive and camera gear as well as enjoy the Pacific and the sunshine. Also, the group of incredibly experienced divers provides plenty of stories to pass the time. There are videos and the experience of the Captain and crew to help you get excited for the diving. In addition, you may want to take this time to take one of the technical diving courses.

Day 3 to Day 8

Spent diving the pinnacles around the perimeter of Cocos Island. Divers usually average three dives per day at depths of 60 to 100 feet or more. This, of course, is what the whole trip is about.

Day 9 Day 9 will give you the opportunity to make the last 3 dives before the cruise comes back to Costa Rica and reality!

Day 10

This will be a relaxing day where guests can spend all day discussing the diving and comparing their adventures.

Day 11

Arrival in Puntarenas. Immediately after breakfast you will be transported back to San Jose.

Note We strongly recommend staying one night on land, before and after your trip, in case there are any unforeseen delays.
