We loved the dive with the DeepSee submarine very much. It was defiantly an adventure that all divers should do at least once in their lifetime. It’s really interesting being at 300m bellow the surface and to see those special & amazing critters there followed by the pilot’s comments throughout the whole dive. I highly recommend everybody to go through this experience.
We came, two friends, both of us diving instructors that dove in many places in the world, and truly, we have never seen an operation operating so well from the first moment ‘till the last. For sure we’ll come back soon.

Une plongee a 300 metres est une experience unique! A ne pas manquer si vous venez plonger sub l’Argo equipage et materiel tres professionels. Descente le long d’un tombant dans l’obscurite Presque absolue. Meureusement l’eclairage permet de profiter de cet environement que nous ne connaissons pas. Merci a vous tous pour votre gentillesse et votre efficacite. A bientot peut-etre. Et “Pura Vida”.
This was my first and I know will not be my last trip to the Coco Islands. First I have to say thanks to the ARGO crew who worked so hard doing their best at what they know about the waters around the island. The Cruise Director YOYO and dive guide CHIPOPA made every dive special. Preparing us at our pre-dive briefing on what we were about to see and what to look for at each dive site. The skiff drivers MOSQUE and BURRO made each boat trip an adventure by showing us the island up close so we could take pictures of the beautiful scenery.
There was never a shortage of food (snacks) and drink (Soft Drinks) after each dive, Ships Steward JAVITO made sure of that. At the breakfast, lunch and dinner table the head chef CHICO and his assistant cook CHACO did their best by feeding us with delicious meals every day.
Although I did not go on the “Deepsee” dive the people who did said it was a great experience that all should do. I think it’s because of the team Deepsee ELI / ARIK / FELIPE / MONIO that made it so special for the ones who did. And last is the one who made the crossing to and from the island is Boat Captain RICARDO BONILLA (BONI) I have to say thank you for delivering us to the island and back again safely so we can tell the world what we saw and did on our special vacation.
What we saw were Hammerheads, White tips, Tigers and Galapagos sharks. Every color of Eels, greens, spotted and stripped and one so big it couldn’t get out of its home to say hi. This guy was huge. Devil rays, Eagle rays, Octopus, sea snake eels and many more types of critters large and small to look at. Everywhere you looked there was something to gaze at. The night dives are amazing to watch when the Whitetips hunt for their food.
To the Team Argo
Thank you
