About
A Costa-Rican-owned dive shop running trips to Isla del Caño for both certified divers and snorkelers, with reliable sightings of whitetip reef sharks, turtles, and rays — one diver even logged a huge manta at Hueco del Diablo. Instructor Roberto is singled out by first-timers doing their Open Water certification as patient and confidence-building. The crew feeds you a home-cooked meal of rice, beans, and fresh pineapple, and folds in marine-conservation talk. The boat ride out is fast.

We had a great Caño island tour with Black Tip Divers! We had some snorkelers and some certified divers, both had a nice experience, with plenty of fish, sharks, rays, turtles and more! All gear was provided and in good condition, or you can bring your own. Shop location was a great distance from the national park and the crew was lovely and knowledgeable. The boat ride to the island was very fast and intense, making it a bit uncomfortable at times and seasickness pills were helpful. Lunch was provided after snorkeling, and it was absolutely delicious! Fruit and water was also available. A midday short stop at Caño island beach was lovely as well.
Incredible tour and great customer service. We saw a TON of fish, sea turtles, flounders, and white tip reef sharks. The crew was very experienced, and also fed us a delicious home-cooked meal of salad, rice, beans, fresh cut pineapple, and sweet tea. We got to see lots of Dolphins jumping! An added bonus. This is one of the only Costa-Rican owned dive shops. It was my first dive and it was spectacular!
I went with Blacktip Divers to Isla del Caño. We first dived La Barca that was an easy dive. The visibility was good and we saw sharks and turtles and fish. The second dive was in Hueco del Diablo and it was beautiful. Saw sharks and a huge manta ray. The crew of the boat and the dive masters were very knowledgeable and as everything was Pura Vida. Highly recommend using them to visit Isla del Caño for diving.
