Additional Information

A diving holiday to the Galapagos or the Cocos Islands is right at the top of any diver’s bucket list so imagine a trip combining these two amazing destinations? Heaven on earth…

The Galapagos Islands is a legendary Ecuadorian diving destination often considered by experienced divers to represent something of a pinnacle in their diving careers. In that sense, many agree that the Galapagos Islands have, quite simply, the best liveaboard diving cruises in the world, plus incredible non-diving wildlife adventure cruises.

Costa Rica is the perfect destination for a mix of pelagic diving and rainforest exploration. Situated in the Golden Triangle, 550 km off the mainland of Costa Rica, the converging nutrient-rich currents from nearby deep water attract multitudes of pelagic action to Cocos Island. The area has been a UNESCO site since 1997 protecting the unique environment.

On arrival you will be transferred to the Holiday Inn Escazu where you will spend the first night.

After an early transfer from San Jose to Puntarenas you will board the Amazing Okeanos Aggressor for a 10 night diving expedition.

The land transfer from San Jose to Puntarenas takes approximately 1 hour and 45 minutes. Once you arrive Puntarenas board the Okeanos Aggressor I and set on your 36-hour journey to the beautiful Cocos Island.

The Okeanos Aggressor I is a real treat for those of you with the constitution to take on such a trip. Cocos is most suitable for experienced divers. But well worth it for the schools of pelagic.

If you think you had an amazing diving experience already, wait to see what we have in the bag for you with the Galapagos Islands.

The Galapagos Aggressor was built for spectacular diving journeys around the Galapagos Fly to Baltra in the Galapagos islands to board the Galapagos Aggressor III. This boat was built with spectacular diving journeys in mind offering some of the most respected and successful diving trips around the islands.

Just like aboard any other Aggressor boat, the experienced captain, friendly crew, professional naturalists and dive masters will lead you through the trip whilst helping with any questions or queries you may have regarding the diving, meals or the boat.
