When we were there a local dive shop took me on my 'checkout dive' at a shore dive at a place called Coki Beach. Depth to 40-50' sand beach entry. No waves, and in a protected cove. Popular snorkel location and had probably hundreds of snorkelers, most of whom stayed in 3-8' of water and away from divers. Parking on street area, walk down a set of concrete steps directly onto the beach. Very easy access. I think this beach is in the travel guides (Fodor's etc). Can't remember if there's a local dive shop on site for equipment or air fills, but I know there was a building in which people were renting snorkel gear and we weren't the only one's diving either... FYI: this is a popular cruise boat tourist dumping spot.



Coki Beach

Coki beach is a fun place to do shore dives.  If you bring your own gear, tanks are only $10 each.  Peter and his crew at the shop are friendly.  The place will be crowded with locals and cruise ship day-trippers, but when you are under the surface, who cares?  Great viz and super easy access.  Have a great time at Coki!!
