DIVING
Diving in Ocotal Area: Diving off the northwest side of Costa Rica is very popular with beaches like El Coco, Ocotal and Hermosa beaches and underwater destinations like those off the coast of Bahia Culebra and Islas Murcielagos (Bat Island). Visibility ranges from 20 feet to 100 feet, depending on the plankton and nutrients in the area at the time. Water temperatures range from 75 to 80 degrees F and depths range from 40 feet to more than 100 feet with an average of 45 feet of spectacular underwater exploration of reefs, caves, and rocks. There are over 40 dive sites in the Gulf of Papagayo in the Ocotal area of Costa Rica. Some of the more popular sites are Aquarium, Surprise, Virador, Monkey Head, Punta Gorda, Baja Tiburones and Los Meros and Escorpiones for shallow dives. All sites showcase an abundant array of marine life such as spotted eagle rays, white-tip sharks, mobule and cow nosed rays, frogfish and sea horses alongside a backdrop of volcanic rock formations. At other sites in the area divers experience once in a lifetime adventures with green and Ridley turtles and white-tip reef sharks. Most sights showcase large manta rays and black marlins weighing upwards of several hundred pounds and the occasional pod of pilot whales. At specific sites like Las Corridas and Surpresa photographers surface having snapped pictures of tiny sea horses swimming amongst 200 to 300 jewfish and 20 to 80 pound amberjacks.
