点评:Having dived with Iguana previously, I had no hesitation in booking another 2 dive excursion on this trip in December. Iguana are a thoroughly professional organization that is passionate about diving, marine life and the wider ecology of Costa Rica. Safety of the guests is a priority, with a detailed safety briefing before each dive. The ratio of guest divers to dive masters is kept low and groups are organized according to ability and experience. Thorough equipment checks are carried out before each dive and the equipment provided is up to date and well looked after. The boat skipper chooses the dive sites based on his experience and factors such as the tides and weather which might affect visibility, which is generally good at the 18m depth the dives go down to. Sea life is varied and abundant, with plenty of shark, octopus, lobster etc and shoals of smaller fishes to swim around or through. We were fortunate enough to meet a mother and calf humpback whale on our 20min trip out to the dive site.
Having satisfied myself on this first outing that I was physically OK to dive (I was the oldest diver by some margin), I booked another 2 outings during the rest of my stay. No more humpbacks, but there's always the chance to encounter dolphins and orcas and I'm going to keep going back til I see a manta ray!
翻译:之前曾与 Iguana 一起潜水,因此我毫不犹豫地在 12 月的这次旅行中预订了另外 2 次潜水游览。Iguana 是一家非常专业的组织,对潜水、海洋生物和哥斯达黎加更广泛的生态充满热情。客人的安全是重中之重,每次潜水前都会进行详细的安全简报。客人潜水员与潜水大师的比例保持在较低水平,并根据能力和经验组织小组。每次潜水前都会进行彻底的设备检查,所提供的设备都是最新的,并且保养得很好。船长根据他的经验以及可能影响能见度的潮汐和天气等因素来选择潜水地点,潜水深度一般在 18 米时能见度很好。海洋生物种类繁多,有很多鲨鱼、章鱼、龙虾等,还有成群的小鱼可以游来游去。我们很幸运,在前往潜水地点的 20 分钟旅程中遇到了一头母座头鲸和一头小座头鲸。
第一次出游后,我确信自己的身体状况适合潜水(我是年龄最大的潜水员),因此在剩下的时间里,我又预订了两次出游。虽然再也看不到座头鲸了,但总有机会遇到海豚和虎鲸,我会一直回来,直到看到蝠鲼!
