Highlights
Built for comfort and stability, the Cocos Island Aggressor is a 38 meter/124ft liveaboard that accommodates up to 22 passengers in 11 staterooms – 4 master staterooms on the upper deck and 7 deluxe staterooms on the lower deck. Each room has a private bathroom, shower, and air conditioning, and every passenger gets a spacious locker for their dive gear. The Cocos Island Aggressor has a spacious salon, a large sun deck, loungers and deck chairs, a bar, and a grill. With a varied, mouth-watering menu, lunches consist of lighter meals such as hot soups, salads, and sandwiches. The talented onboard chef prepares delicious dinners that include salads, seafood, beef, or chicken, BBQ, and even fresh homemade desserts. There is a variety of complimentary fruit juices, soft drinks, water, iced tea, coffee, and a limited selection of local beer and wine. All meals, snacks, and drinks are provided.
Boarding and departure times are subject to the tides. Immediately after boarding, the liveaboard departs for its 36-hour crossing to Cocos Island. During trips and between dives, guests can hang out at the bar on the top deck and catch up on the diving of the day while relaxing on the comfortable loungers. The Cocos Island Aggressor offers multiple dives throughout the day for an average of 21 dives on a 10-night trip. No night diving is currently offered at Cocos Island.
Guests can enjoy diving at the Cocos Island National Park UNESCO World Heritage site, for the chance of big fish encounters with creatures like hammerheads, whitetip sharks, manta rays, and whale sharks. Aside from the incredible diving, guests will also be taken ashore to hike through the jungles of Cocos and swim in waterfalls.

Can't Wait to do it again!
I booked this liveaboard for my 50th birthday and it did not disappoint. The boat was comfortable and spacious. The crew could not have been better. Jorge, our waiter, was super nice and accommodating. The Chef did a fantastic job! As a pescatarian, they were very accommodating but I would have liked more bean and tofu options for protein. The Panga drivers, Alberto and Lito, were awesome. The dive leaders, Mauricio and Warren were phenomenal. I followed Warren from Panga to Panga because I enjoyed his leadership and guiding. I dived with Mauricio one day and he was fantastic too! I was sad to leave but inspired to do it again.

The Crew and Island are the entire trip!
Cannot emphasize enough how fabulous this trip was. Cocos Island has got to be one of the most beautiful places on earth ... both out of and under the water. Capt. Mauricio is an absolute gem! Always laughing and helped me when I got a little nervous with the 5ft+ swells, gave me the nickname Scarey Shark - hahahah! As a matter of fact the entire crew were gems! Each one always had a smile on their face and made sure that your stay aboard the Cocos Island Aggressor was perfect. Warren the Cruise Director/Dive Guide was passionate, knowledgeable and did an amazing presentation at the end with the video of our trip. You can tell he loves Cocos and diving ... I think sometimes he got so wrapped up in enjoying the dive that he forgot he was our dive guide. Our server Eduardo was spectacular; had our drinks ready at each meal, our room turned down with chocolate each night and EVEN DID LAUNDRY (which is a huge plus on such a long trip) The rooms were nice and comfortable. The WC had a slight odor but seriously what do you expect from a boat. There were designated space under the beds for suitcases which was also a plus. The diving was out of the this world. El Niño ended in April and we were in a La Niña with colder water which brought in the sharks. Oh my goodness were there sharks! Hundreds of sharks! But not only that we saw a Manta, Whale Shark, sharks mating and one person in our group saw a Stripped Marlin in the distance not to forget ALL the fish! We were in the rainy season which I was not looking forward and now I think that is the only time to go. This brought in alot of rain, wind and big swells so trips in the panga were quite bumpy but also brings in all the large pelagics. The land tours were great too. Thank you to the crew of the Cocos Island Aggressor! Can't wait to come back!

Despite cabin accommodations being less than optimal, the staff, the diving, the food, and the scenery were excellent.
Swam with a giant Oceanic Manta. Saw scores of hammerheads. Marble Rays. Massive schools of Jacks.

Excellent
At the end of the week the crew assembled videos and slide shows to share with us and when you see all of the wonderful tings we saw underwater you realize just how wonderful the trip was. Cannot say enough about how wonderful the crew was and the food was excellent!

Great diving in Coco Islands
An amazing experience diving one of the more remote places in the world. Unfortunately the "new" boat (which seemed refurbished at best) had issues and our bow cabin was very cramped and certainly not as advertised.

Exceptional Cocos Island experience
Incredible sealife - including schooling hammerheads and dolphins, enormous manta rays and countless Galapogos sharks, all within clouds of other fish. Excellent service from the crew made us feel very special, and made it one of the most memorable holidays we have ever had.

Awesome experience, with a lovely crew
Amazing, with lovely diving, an awesome crew that was super thoughtful & attentive. What really could be better is the cleaning - everything is a bit dingy and dirrty. The bathrooms especially are pretty groce, they stink (just use some campaor) & need a mokeover! Also the boards around the whirlpool are loose & a few people fell over them.
