FROM PAST REVIEWS I EXPECTED GOOD DIVING. I DONT KNOW WHAT WAS THE PROBLEM ?EL NINO BUT THERE WERE MINIMAL FISH AND CORALS WERE POOR.THE PEOPLE AT JINETES DE OSA WERE VERY NICE AND PRICES WERE REASONABLE. SINCE THE DIVING WAS POOR I DID SEVERAL EXTRA LAND EXPEDITIONS AND THESE WERE ALL GREAT. SAW LOTS OF BIRDS,ANIMALS AND VERY INTERESTING BUGS. THESE TRIPS ARE HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.THE TRIP TO CANO ISLAND WASAT LEAST 45 MINUTES AND SOMETIMES ROUGH. BASIC LUNCH AFTER DIVING. NOTE ONLY CERTAIN TYPE OF CELL PHONE WORKS IN COSTA RICA ALL COMMUNICATION FROM DRAKE BAY BY E-MAIL FROM CORCOVADO EXPEDITIONS. THEY BOOK INTERESTING TRIPS TO RAIN FOREST AND ARE VERY NICE AND FAIR PEOPLE. |
