Okeanos Aggressor - Liveaboard
 |
The Okeanos Aggressor offers an unforgettable diving experience. Explore the amazing Cocos Island waters in comfort. This uninhabited island rests 300 miles off Costa Rica's Pacific coast. Rocky pinnacles surrounding Cocos Island are beacons for big animals and big action. If weather permits the Okeanos Aggressor guests can be taken ashore to hike through the jungle and swim in the many waterfalls.
The liveaboard can accommodate a maximum of 22 guests within the 10 staterooms. All staterooms have private facilities, porthole, security box, hair dryer and a TV / DVD.
Other amenities on the Okeanos Aggressor include a separate dining room and a lounge with an entertainment center, featuring a TV, DVD/CD home theatre system, and an assortment of movies.
A partially covered sundeck furnished with chase lounges is the perfect place to take in the views of the un-touched beauty of Cocos Island. There is also a complete wet bar and a further seating area.
The dive deck has personal gear lockers, rinse tanks and a three-tier camera table with low-pressure air hoses. Rental dive equipment is also available.
Agent Liveaboard verdict: The Okeanos Aggressor offers comfort and some of the best diving in the world. Cocos Island has to be at the top of any serious divers "must dive" list. |
