MV Sea Hunter; Liveaboard diving in Costa Rica; 9.2 out of 10 and is rated 'Superb'; from £422, $515, €481/day. Customer Review:
”A must-do expedition for experienced divers. Fantastic, the crew really go out of their way to make their guests feel special and appreciated. It is extremely expensive, but considering how remote the location is and how comfortable the boat is, it’s understandable. Only recommended for hard-core experienced divers as the crossing to Cocos is long and bumpy. I loved every minute of it and was especially surprised how beautiful the cabins are (hand-painted individually). The general comfort level was a lot higher than I had expected and if I could afford it I’d definitely go back again.” Recommended for: Diving, cabins, crew.
