Bahamas Liveaboard Shark Experience

We will land and allow for some time off walking the island of Bimini and checking out the local places. Evening and sunset snorkel and swims around some of the local attractions are also included in our itinerary.

We will complete a max of three dives per day, no night dives; dives are determined by weather, underwater conditions, current, visibility to guarantee the best safe experience for all participants.

A minimum of an Open Water Diver certification is required to join our trip.

We return to Freeport, Grand Bahama Island, and disembark on the last day of the cruise after breakfast.
Cabins are double occupancy; we will provide a divisor between the beds for people sharing the same room. Each cabin has one private bathroom with a shower and a charging station.
The boat will provide one towel for the shower and one for diving at the start of the cruise.
We share our meals on the back deck; we will use the inside dining area in case of wind or rain.
The water temperature around 73-74 F (23-24 C) however, many dives are stationary.

A full wetsuit is mandatory for all the dives; we also recommend gloves,  hood, and possibly additional layers over a 3mm suit. Most dives are shallow, but we might complete a dive or two in 18-25m 60-80ft depending on weather and itinerary; they will not be the first dives of the trip.
The price is $6.160 (US dollars) per person, including all the diving, food, and accommodation for the listed dates.

Passengers are welcome; however, due to the small number of guests we take, the price remains the same. We do not have a single cabin upgrade; single cabin price is the full price for two people. 

During each cruise, I will give several presentations about sharks, behavior, ocean conservation, and the work we conduct in The Bahamas and the rest of the world. 

Kewin will be the official photographer and videographer, collecting images and videos of your trip above and below the water. It will be emailed to you as a package at the end of your trip, included in the price.
