The Secret Behind The Cocos Island |The Mysterious Island In The Pacific Ocean

Cocos island Isla del coco The mysterious island in the pacific ocean For centuries, Cocos Island—a small island in the Pacific Ocean, about 340 miles from the shore of Costa Rica—has been shrouded by legends of buried treasure. Many stories have been drawn from history to explain the possibility of treasure on the island. Perhaps the greatest cache of treasure thought to be on Cocos Island is the treasure of Lima, containing a tremendous collection of gold, silver, and religious artefacts. Its position as the first point of contact with the northern equatorial counter-current, and the myriad interactions between the island and the surrounding marine ecosystem, make the area an ideal laboratory for the study of biological processes. The underwater world of the national park has become famous due to the attraction it holds for divers, who rate it as one of the best places in the world to view large pelagic species such as sharks, rays, tuna and dolphins.
