The Deep Reefs of Cocos Island
![]() |
Our team went to Cocos Island National Park, 360 miles off Costa Rica, to research new IMAX filmmaking techniques in unexplored "deep reef" environments. As a marine reserve and World Heritage site, Cocos Island is strictly guarded against poaching. It represents the wildest of ocean places, a refuge for sea life to thirve as it has for millennia. Though they are increasingly rare, places like these illustrate how vibrant marine ecosystems can be if we protect them.
