Today was an ocean fiesta. We spent all day in the water, first at Isla Coco, so named for its lone coconut tree. This island supports an exceptionally resilient, old, and stunning rocky reef with a variety of colorful inhabitants such as parrotfish, guineafowl pufferfish, Moorish idols, and whitetip reef sharks.
In the afternoon, we visited the Coiba Ranger Station located on the largest island in Central America. Besides black vultures, agoutis, and capuchin monkeys, this island also hosts endemics like the Coiba spinetail and a subspecies of howler monkey that is smaller than their mainland cousin.
After a cocktail hour on the sundeck, guests enjoyed the evening recap, dinner, and then footage captured by Undersea Specialist Zoey Greenberg featuring animals from today’s reef.
