Package: 2 Days of Diving & 3 Nights in Santa Catalina

This package includes three nights in Santa Catalina, two days of diving (4 dives), the transport to Coiba National Park, all the equipment, the guide/instructor, and lunch (a sandwich and fruit) on your diving days.

The Plan

We ask you to meet us at the dive shop the day you arrive in Santa Catalina in order to try on your gear and finalize payments. Then we will send you to the hotel we will have booked for you. After a hopefully restful night, we will expect you at the dive center at 7.30 for the briefing. After your trip to Coiba, you will return to the hotel for another night, after which a second day of adventures awaits you in Coiba. You will spend a third night at the same hotel before departing.

The Diving

The boat usually leaves between 8 and 8.30 in the morning and comes back at about 4.30. We do two or three dives a day. Two dives are included in the price. If you’d like the possibility of a third dive, please indicate so in the available add-ons. Note that the third dive is subject to weather conditions (especially in the rainy season) and costs an additional $20.

The Accommodation

This package includes a basic private room  (double, triple or quadruple, depending on how many people you are booking for). If you’d like to stay somewhere fancier, please indicate so in the available extras.

We do not guarantee a specific hotel, since it is subject to availability.

Booking this package:

When you are making your online reservation, to ensure availability, please select your first day of diving on the calendar, not the day you arrive here. Also, indicate your preferences regarding beds (singles or doubles) in the special requirements section. We will begin looking for a hotel and confirm your reservation as soon as we have found suitable accommodation for you. Once everything is confirmed, we ask each diver to fill in our waiver (the link will be sent to you with the confirmation).
