The Catalina Islands, located off the coast of the Guanacaste province, offer some of the most outstanding scuba diving in Costa Rica. The 20 volcanic rock formations that make up the archipelago provide an ideal habitat for a variety of marine creatures such as manta rays, devil rays, turtles, and white-tip reef sharks. Several dive centers in the area provide dive trips to the Catalina Islands, suitable for beginners and experienced divers alike.
