Scuba Diving in Costa Rica?

[ErnestC]

I am planning to go diving this year and one of the places I am potentially interested in is Costa Rica. I have read what is available on the forum (probably not everything) however, I have a question that maybe someone can answer.

I would like to dive on some good spot where you can see some animals and the visibility will not be very bad. But I'm also thinking of doing an advanced course while I'm in Costa Rica. Do you have any advice on a dive site, dive school or instructor?

I would like to revive this thread as we are going to Costa Rica (Liberia area) around mid-August of this year. We are experienced divers but will be traveling with one new OW diver. Any additional advice for the OW diver is greatly appreciated. @Pedroo

have them get advanced before going.... August is a great time for the Bat Island bull sharks, but it requires AOW.
