Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need to be a certified diver for this tour?

Yes, this tour is only for certified divers with a minimum PADI Scuba Diver certification. If you are not certified yet, we offer beginner programs that allow you to experience scuba diving under the guidance of a professional instructor. Check out our Discover Scuba Diving experience if you’d like to try diving without a certification!

How many dives are included in the trip?

We offer 1, 2, or 3 dives during the trip, depending on your preference. Each dive takes place at a different site around Caño Island, allowing you to explore diverse underwater landscapes and marine life. Let us know how many dives you’d like to include when booking your tour!

What dive sites will we visit?

The dive sites around Caño Island are carefully selected to offer the best underwater experience. However, since this is a protected marine reserve, site availability depends not only on ocean conditions but also on the approval of the biological reserve rangers. While we always strive to choose the best dive spots for our guests, we cannot guarantee specific locations until we check in with the rangers on the day of the trip. This ensures the protection of the marine ecosystem while still providing an incredible diving experience.

What marine life can I expect to see?

At Caño Island, you can expect to see a wide variety of marine life, making it one of the best dive spots in Costa Rica. Some of the highlights include sea turtles, reef sharks, manta rays, and an abundance of tropical fish like parrotfish, angelfish, and pufferfish. And during the boat ride to the island, you may have the chance to spot whales during the migration season, which typically occurs from July to October and December to March.The vibrant coral reefs and crystal-clear waters make it an unforgettable diving experience! It’s important to remember that Caño Island is a natural environment that is constantly changing, not a zoo. As such, we cannot guarantee the conditions, visibility, or exactly what marine life we will encounter during the dive. Every dive is unique, and part of the beauty of scuba diving here is the thrill of discovering the wonders of the ocean in its natural state.

How long does this trip take?

The scuba diving trip to Caño Island typically lasts from 7 AM to around 2-3 PM. The exact duration depends on the ocean conditions.

Do I have to bring my own diving gear?

No, you don’t need to bring your own diving gear. We provide all the necessary scuba equipment, including tanks, masks, fins, wetsuits, and BCDs, ensuring everything is in excellent condition for your safety and comfort. However, if you prefer to use your own gear, feel free to bring it along!

How long is the boat ride to Caño Island?

The boat ride from Uvita to Caño Island typically takes around 45 minutes to 1 hour, depending on the ocean conditions. During this scenic journey, you’ll have the chance to enjoy the beautiful coastline and, if you’re lucky, spot dolphins or even whales!

When is the best time for this tour?

The best time for the scuba diving tour to Caño Island is during the dry season, from December to April, when the weather is sunny, and the ocean conditions are calmer, offering excellent visibility underwater. However, diving is available year-round, and even during the rainy season (May to November), you can still enjoy great dives, though occasional rain may affect visibility. If you’re hoping to see whales during their migration, the best months are from July to October and December to March.
