With 217+ marine species recorded in the area - including dolphins, humpback whales, orcas, sea turtles and pufferfish - Punta Quepos offers some of Caribbean Coast's richest diving. Water ranges 29-31°C, warmest March, April, May.
Punta Quepos offers a relaxed dive along a rocky reef. We usually find green moray eels tucked into crevices and parrotfish grazing on the corals. It's a solid choice for a casual afternoon dive, good for divers who enjoy taking their time to spot smaller creatures.
