Coiba Dive Center is located in the heart of Santa Catalina, Panama, just a one-hour boat ride to world class diving. Coiba National Park has been described by many as the "New Galapagos" and the "New Cocos," Isla Coiba is by far the best diving Panama has to offer. Day Tours Wildlife abounds under Coiba’s waters. Amongst many other amazing animals, we see White Tip Reef Sharks (Guaranteed for all 3 tank divers), Whale Sharks, Humpback Whales, Mobula and Giant Mantas, Frogfish, Seahorses, Turtles, tons of Eels and much more.

Kat is the best dive instructor I've met over more than 30 years and 300 dives. Great experience, excellent spot. Hard to do better. I'll be back!

We had a good dive day. Very good divemaster and a relatively comfortable boat. The wetsuits provided were worn out and extremely thin. We also did a day of diving with Panama Dive Center and had a very similar experience: also a very good divemaster but their wetsuits were new and thicker, the only (minor) drawback was PCD's dive boat was a bit smaller and more cramped than Coiba Dive. Both companies can sell out, so you should go with whichever has availability
