Snorkeling and Scuba Diving at Coki Beach

When we were there a local dive shop took me on my 'checkout dive' at a shore dive at a place called Coki Beach. Depth to 40-50' sand beach entry. No waves, and in a protected cove. Popular snorkel location and had probably hundreds of snorkelers, most of whom stayed in 3-8' of water and away from divers. Parking on street area, walk down a set of concrete steps directly onto the beach. Very easy access. I think this beach is in the travel guides (Fodor's etc). Can't remember if there's a local dive shop on site for equipment or air fills, but I know there was a building in which people were renting snorkel gear and we weren't the only one's diving either... FYI: this is a popular cruise boat tourist dumping spot.

My boyfriend and I are advanced divers, and we visited Coki Beach on one of our stops during our Southern Caribbean cruise. It was our first non-California dive, and we LOVED it! It was absolutely amazing! We saw turtles and tons of beautiful fish. This is a GREAT site for a shore dive, but it doesn't get very deep. Great overall experience, though! Highly recommended!
