Our Multi-Day Trips are the best way to experience diving in Coiba National Park! Imagine diving multiple times each day in the park’s mesmerizing waters, being located within fifteen to 50 minutes of some of the most incredible diving! Please note that these multi-day trips are only for experienced divers.
In Multi-Day trips we also visit dive sites, what cannot be visited on day trips due to remote locations and/or challenging conditions and required experience level. These trips offer the best diving the central American Pacific coast has to offer.
We leave the first day at 8:00 am from our dive center on Santa Catalina's beach and after 3 dives at Coiba National Park we head to a small hostel located on the coastline a stone-throw from the borders to Coiba National Park, dive from there the second and third day and return the last day around 3:00 to 4:00 pm to Santa Catalina. All food and beverages included.
The hostel offers basic but clean accommodation with basic electricity and cold water shower. We can get a private room for couples usually. If you like a much better accommodation AND be close to the dive sites, please check out our option at the Liquid Jugle Lab on private Simca Island.
We will dive (weather permitting) at least one full day at the northern archipelago of the Contreras Islands of Coiba National Park, which are famous for small to medium sized aggregations of Hammerhead Sharks from April to June.

We ask our divers to test their equipment at our dive center before leaving Santa Catalina beach between 8:00 and 8:30, so you should be here the afternoon before ill 6:30 or in the morning between 7:30 and 7:45. After a general briefing, we take a boat ride of 1 to 1:30 hours to our first dive site, where you will receive the briefing of the site and any special procedures for it. After a maximal dive time of an hour, we will have a break on one of Coiba’s beaches to relax and enjoy the beautiful surroundings, some beaches offer also excellent snorkeling, or possibilities to see monkeys, birds, butterflies or crocodiles. After the break, we go for another dive and will make another break on a beach where we will serve the packed lunch. After sufficient time to digest we will go for another third dive before we reach the hostel in the late afternoon. After a welcome drink and a snack, you will check into your room and enjoy the tranquil atmosphere or have a walk on the beach or the little fishing village. Dinner will be served around 7:00 pm. The next day we will invite you to a hearty breakfast around 7:00 am and go for another exciting day of 3 dives. On the last day, we will be back after the third dive around 3:00 to 4:00 pm at Santa Catalina again.
