Introduction: Coco View Scuba Diving
Short Description: CoCo View - laid-back comfort and enjoyment.
Long Description:

CoCo View is located on Roatan, the largest of the Honduras Bay Islands. It is situated 35 miles off the north coast of Honduras. The Bay Islands are an extension of the Sierra de Omoa mountain range.

Roatan has a varied and tumultuous history dating through colonial times. Disputes over control of the island erupted between the Spanish and British, and very often Pirates who took advantage of the safe harbor around Port Royal.
Native Garifuna communities still exist in Punta Gorda.

Roatan is a long, narrow island, 40 miles in length, total landmass of 49 square miles. The mountainous backbone is surrounded by extensive coral reefs. Fishing villages and towns dot the coastline.

CoCo View Resort is located on the protected south shore of Roatan. Coral reefs are in more shallow water, and experience calmer seas than the deeper and rougher north side.

Because of its location on the windward side of the island the resort enjoys a near constant gentle breeze from the prevailing winds of the Caribbean.

Trip Information:

Stuart Cove's Dive Bahamas is Nassau's leading full service dive resort. Originally opened in 1978, the operation has grown to a fleet of seven dive vessels, with five of the boats over 40 feet in length. Located on the southwest side of New Providence Island, Stuart Cove's is in the ideal physical location to take advantage of the diverse underwater geological formations. As such, dive sites are available for divers with no experience all the way up to expert-level dives including four new shipwrecks we have helped place in the last two years.

A wide spectrum of diving activities is available. Holiday travelers who have never gone diving before will enjoy the 3-hour "Learn To Dive Program". In this program guests will be introduced to the equipment used in the sport of diving in a swimming pool, receive an introduction into the basics of diving theory, and then complete their first ocean dive. All of this is done under the supervision of a professional dive instructor who is working exclusively with a small group of guests.
