Caño Island is one of the best dive locations in all of Costa Rica. The best place to dive the island is from Drake Bay because of the inclusive experience, smaller groups, and closer access.
On the way out to Caño Island, we had a special sighting of spotted dolphins in the distance. Upon my return, the dive company fed us all lunch—something very unique and special compared to any other company I’ve dived with around the world.
I dove 2 sites and explored Caño Island in between. While one dive was long and filled with sharks and turtles, the other was short and filled with rays and eels. Although the dives were pretty normal the overall experience was unique. This is why I highly recommend diving Caño Island from Drake Bay.
