Truk Lagoon - Micronesia
After the huge success of Atlantis’ expeditions to Truk Lagoon in 2005, 2006 and 2007, we’re now planning on going back in 2009. Just like in 2007, there will be the option of going on one week’s recreational wreck diving, one week technical wreck diving – or both!

Cocos Island
Escape to Cocos Island a lush, green uninhabited island resting 300 miles off Costa Rica's Pacific coast. Rocky pinnacles surrounding Cocos are beacons for big animals and big action. Schooling hammerheads, countless white-tip sharks, mantas, tuna and even whale sharks call Cocos home. Weather permitting, Okeanos guests are shuttled ashore to hike through the jungles of Cocos and swim in her many waterfalls. Eight-day charters are Saturday to Sunday with five days of diving and ten-day trips are Tuesday to Friday with seven days of diving. The Okeanos sets off from the port town of Punteranas. Transfers from San Jose are provided on the day of departure. An overnight stay is required in San Jose prior to the charter.

The Galapagos Islands has been the most requested new dive destination of our Dancer Fleet guests for many years. We are elated about our partnership with a strong, ecologically minded company such as Ecoventura which understands the expectations of our guests and maintains the highest possible quality of service.
The M/V Sky Dancer cruises the Galapagos Islands in search of sea lions, penguins, schooling hammerhead sharks, turtles, stingrays, whale sharks and the magnificent mantas. Included in planned itineraries are visits to the very remote islands of Wolf and Darwin. The newly constructed Sky Dancer features all the Dancer Fleet amenities you have come to expect including Nitrox fills, private en-suite facilities, spacious lounge areas, fine dining and more.
The Ecuadorian corporation that owns Sky Dancer, Ecoventura, is proud to announce their official recognition as one of the first recipients of the SmartVoyager seal of approval for their entire operation in Galapagos. ãWe have always tried to be responsibleä says Ecoventura President, Santiago Dunn, ãbut this process brings in the best science and the best ideas from many different groups, showing us ways to improve our operation
