Cocos Island, Costa Rica
There is nothing like the first
time diving with hundreds of sharks. I have never seem marine life like
this, wherever I looked I saw schools of fish, marble, devil and eagle rays and
all sorts of sharks (sulky, white-tip, galapagos, hammer-heads, but no
whale-shark) on EVERY DIVE. We did a crazy night dive with the white tip sharks,
where they used our lights to hunt. We just stayed still and 3-400 of them was
chasing the little reef fish front of our eyes. My favorite part was however
(apart from swimming with the humpback whale) to finally swim with wild
dolphins. I was dreaming about it all my life and now I did it. One other
day I was expecting jumping in with another pot of dolphins, but instead found
myself surrounded with 20 sulky shark. That was way scary. All in all, this
was a trip of a lifetime.
