Cayo Coco
★★★★☆
(127)
Cayo Coco offers good, easy, shallow diving, in some places right from shore. A great spot for beginners and snorkelers. For more advanced divers you can catch a day charter out to Jardines de la Reina on the other side of the island for amazing diving.
You’ll see typical Caribbean life like nurse and reef sharks, possible eagle rays, turtles, stingrays, and lots of fish: snapper, angelfish, grunts, parrot fish, and grouper.
