The best trip for me on planet earth.
Schools of hammerheads; all the different rays: manta, mobula, bat and marble; jack school; a trip in the submersible to 1000’ but also, all of the other fish, big and small…I loved them all.

"Pura Vida!" The 'must dive' Cocos experience.
Swimming with a wall of hammerhead sharks, drifting with thousands of Jack's, and diving with knowledgeable experts and good diving companions. These memories will stay with me for ever. It did rain for most of the trip, but that did not spoil it for me, even with reduced visibility by Cocos standards, it was amazing to a British diver. This is not a trip for the inexperienced. There was some challenging currents and waves, but our trip was in the rainy season. Everything was very efficiently run and all were extremely helpful and friendly. To really seal an excellent trip, my clothes were washed, dried and neatly folded just before we returned. Luxury indeed; worth every penny and hopefully I will return to Cocos, on Sea Hunter but in the dry season.
