Drake Bay Diving

Set on Costa Rica's Osa Peninsula in Drake Bay, Drake Bay Diving has spent over five years building a reputation as one of the area's top dive centers. The team pairs a genuine passion for the underwater world with a commitment to safety and personalised attention, taking time to understand what each diver wants from their day in the water.

Courses and marine life

You'll find a full range of PADI courses here, from Discover Scuba Diving and Open Water through to Advanced Open Water, Rescue Diver, Divemaster and specialties, plus the ReActivate program for certified divers wanting to refresh their skills. As the only Scubapro dealer and the only DAN World Member Dive Center in Drake Bay, the centre backs its instruction with quality gear and diver-safety credentials.

The primary dive site is Caño Island, a national marine biological reserve whose volcanic rock formations teem with white-tip reef sharks, sea turtles and large schools of tropical fish. Pelagic encounters with giant Pacific manta rays, whale sharks and humpback whales are frequent, making this a rewarding spot for beginners and experienced divers alike.
