Boutique Dive Experience

US Virgin Islands

Looking for a unique dive experience? Our dive excursions are custom tailored for both private and small group experiences. Choose from a private full day yacht dive, a two tank “by-the-seat” yacht dive or a professionally guided shore dive. You can add instruction to any experience with a variety of PADI instruction options available in private and semi private instruction sessions.

Choose from St Croix, St John or St Thomas

Offering Dive Excursion options in St Croix, St John and St Thomas, there is a wealth of fantastic sites to explore in the U.S. Virgin Islands.

Almost completely surrounded by a barrier reef, St Croix boasts some of the best diving the US Virgin Islands has to offer. Explore a macro lovers paradise at the Frederiksted Pier, take in the many wrecks of Butler Bay, get lost in the expansive views of The Cane Bay Wall and glide along colorful reefs rich with marine life. Not to mention some of the friendliest turtles in the Caribbean.

Over 60% of the island of St John is protected National Park. This is great news for divers as the waters are also protected, welcoming marine life aplenty including some of our favorite pals, the Green, Hawksbill and Leatherback turtles. With a variety of sites including the magnificent ‘Cathedral’ of Eagle Shoals, Booby Rock and Tektite where aquanauts once lived under the sea.

Craving a dive and pizza? Just before you sail over to Pizza Pi, a floating pizza joint just off Great St James in Christmas Cove, you will pass two rocks named appropriately Cow & Calf. This must dive for all skill levels leads you on a colorful adventure through canyons and pass-through arches featuring the perfect hiding spots for giant lobsters, Octopus and Nurse sharks as well as soft and hard corals, schools of jacks, spade-fish and our pals the Hawksbill turtle. Buck Island Wildlife Refuge is the perfect spot to explore a colorful coral reef and ship wreck, rich with marine life and oh so many turtles. Then don’t miss a visit to the hospital ship. Sunk in 1985, the 390ft (188.9m) Naval Hospital Ship Miss Opportunity, sits on her side at just over 90ft (27.4m). Offering easy entry into a full tour of her interior, this is the perfect site for those looking to penetrate a truly fascinating wreck.
