You push off from the dock as turquoise water slips under the bow, the island’s fringe reef already humming beneath the surface. The boat eases into the current and the guides hand you fins and a mask; the ocean seems to tug you toward the first drop-off. Coco View’s wall falls away in vertical coral cliffs, currents teasing you along ledges that feel alive with color.
