“Coco’s Island National Park, a jewel off of Costa Rica’s Pacific coast, it is a unique world of its own, set apart even from other parts of Costa Rica. This seclusion magnifies the feeling that this remote island is an unusually delightful experience, and an once-in-a-lifetime opportunity”.
The massive variety of wildlife is extremely attractive to visitors seeking eco-tourism discovery and excursions. A trek through the national park will likely expose tourists to many kinds of wildlife that are so rare, they cannot be located anywhere else on the planet. The phenomenal flora is exhibited by the 235 breeds of plants that punctuate the island’s evergreen forests surrounded by numerous impressive waterfalls.
In the dive and snorkeling universe, Cocos is a top, world-class destination. The blue-turquoise water is extraordinarily clear and makes a great habitat for an abundance of marine life. In the nearby water, it can be seen 270 kinds of fish, and in deeper waters Cocos house one of the world’s largest concentrations of the timid and cartoon-like hammerhead shark, as well as blacktip and whitetip reef sharks, silky, Galapagos and silvertip sharks, the enormous and gentle whale shark and even the occasional tiger shark. Other underwater beauties include eagle and marble rays, humpback whales and orcas, frogfish and the red-lipped batfish.
Cocos has long been enveloped in mystique, spurring pirate tales and legends of hidden treasures since its discovery in 1526. The intent is for Coco’s Island to remain a preserved sanctuary for wildlife and maintain an unsullied view for travelers in search of nature’s secrets.
