Our favorite underwater creature: Fran

Scuba diving is a very popular water sport throughout the Caribbean from Belize to the Virgin Islands to the Grenadines.  The water is warm and clear.  The corals and fish life are plentiful.  Enjoy.

Diving on Bareboat Charters in BVI's:

If you are chartering a bareboat and want to do some diving during the week, there are several ways to do that depending on how much diving you plan to do.  You can rent dive gear and tanks from one of several local dive shops by the day or week.  Or you can schedule rendezvous diving with a local dive company.  They will pick you up at your boat and bring all the gear you need.  They will return you to your boat afterward.  There are several local dive companies.  Here are a few working in the BVI area.

Many bareboaters are interested in other water sports too.

Please check in at Boardsailing BVI in Trellis Bay.  They offer windsurfers, kayaks, surf boards, sail dinghies, Hobie cats.  If you are considering renting a windsurfer take some advice.  Go to Boardsailing BVI and take a lesson.  If they don't have you up and sailing in two hours you don't pay.  And you don't have to haul that windsurfer around on your boat all week unless you want to keep working on it.   It is time well spent.

Diving in Belize.

Legacy is very well set up for diving along the Belize barrier reef.  
It has compressor and tanks instructor, and able to go out to the atolls for diving as well.

On our last trip to Belize we had the opportunity to dive the Blue Hole at Lighthouse Reef.  
We can highly recommend Paradise Down Scuba in Caye Caulker for those not diving from your boat.  
It is a few miles south of Ambergris Caye/San Pedro.
