The Bahamas Diving Experience

If you've ever dreamed of swimming with sharks in the literal sense, it's time for a true Bahamas diving experience. And if you're interested in something a little less daring, your diving experience can include reefs, wrecks and large-growth coral fields, along with spectacularly colored schools of fish.

Divers interested in Bahamas diving are looking for the extraordinary: white-sand bottoms with clear blue water … and all the adventure they can handle.

The crystal clear seas off Long Island beckon with a vast array of dive sites rich with underwater life. There are literally hundreds of sites to explore in pristine waters along the coastlines studded with reefs and ringed with beaches. One of the most popular sites in this prestigious lineup is The Blue Hole. Surrounded by land and recorded as the world's deepest, this dive site is a must for Blue Hole collectors.

For many divers, the Bahamas diving experience isn't complete without a shark dive expedition. Shark Reef supplies weekly excitement as divers have the opportunity to examine some 8 to 18 Caribbean reef sharks in their natural setting. In 30' of protected leeside water, divers gather in an underwater amphitheater as guides feed the sharks. The emphasis remains on showing divers these creatures in their natural setting. For shark lovers, it is a chance to study and admire this creature on a dive that makes every effort to maintain its integrity as an unaffected experience.

Bahamas diving vacations are perfected with a dive at Conception Island Wall to check out the vividly colored formations and sea life. Vertical walls fringed with huge coral begin at 45' and step down to ink blue depths with visibility from 150 to 200'. This site in a Bahamas Nature Park is truly a gem.

When you come up for air, look around and enjoy the non-crowded waterway that beckons you to spend the day as you please.

Escape to a Bahamas diving getaway where the water appears bluer, the fish bigger and underwater landscape more spectacular than you ever imagined.
