For divers, the Bahamas deserves a trip of its own. Instead of adding an occasional dive to a sailing itinerary, a liveaboard diving safari allows you to build the entire vacation around what lies below the surface.
Liveaboards can reach sites that are difficult to access from land, allowing divers to wake up near the day's first dive site and complete multiple dives throughout the trip. Depending on the itinerary, diving can include coral reefs, dramatic walls, wrecks, blue holes, caves, and specialized shark encounters.
The Bahamas is home to the 190-mile Andros Barrier Reef, described by the country's tourism authority as the world's third-largest barrier reef. Diving possibilities range from tiger sharks around Grand Bahama and hammerheads near Bimini to oceanic whitetips around Cat Island, plus reef, wreck, wall, and blue-hole diving across the archipelago.
Neptune's Daughter can help match certified divers with the right liveaboard, itinerary, and experience level, including trips where diving is the primary purpose of the vacation.
