caribbean scuba diving
In the British Virgin Islands, year round the water is at a temperature of close to 80 degrees, diving is rarely deeper than 80 feet and most dives are between 30 and 60 feet. Our dive sites vary from sheltered coral reefs to offshore rocks and walls. You can also hide inside grottoes, caves and old shipwrecks. Visiblity is mostly good to excellent. The tremendous variety of undersea life you'll encounter will keep you checking in the guide books again and again. The Virgin Islands has a diversity of sites that is without equal.

diving from promenade charter yacht
Diving from Promenade is very easy. One soon takes for granted the spacious deck area of a trimaran. You won't be crowded while getting all your gear sorted out and there are two easy places to suit up and sit down while everybody gets ready. There is a ladder that extends 5 rungs below the water to make it easier for you to climb aboard at the end of a dive, with fresh water shower right beside it. When we have keen divers on board, it is our philosophy to visit, on average, two quality dive sites a day, to complement a pleasant, relaxed sailing schedule.
