Okeanos Aggressor II - Caribbean Coast
Boarding the Okeanos Aggressor II on Costa Rica’s Caribbean side usually means one thing: Cocos Island. This liveaboard is your dedicated ride to some serious pelagic action, a journey we’ve always found worth every nautical mile. They're set up specifically for those multi-day expeditions, handling everything from tank fills to meal prep, which really lets you focus on the diving. If you’re looking to get your Instructor rating done while also bagging some hammerhead sightings, this is a solid choice. It's built for divers who are serious about their diving and want to experience those remote, big-animal encounters without the daily logistics of shore diving.
