Coiba Dive Center is located in the heart of Santa Catalina, Panama, just a one-hour boat ride to world class diving. Coiba National Park has been described by many as the "New Galapagos" and the "New Cocos," Isla Coiba is by far the best diving Panama has to offer.

Super friendly dive shop and instructors! They had solid gear and made sure we were well prepared for our dives. We saw massive amounts of fish and lots of sharks, the full day trip to Coiba is a must do for divers in Panama!!
