Most of our dive adventure trips are 7 day 6 night to the Little
Bahama Bank but we also offer 5 day 3 night adventure trips to the same area. Specialty
trips like sharks, dolphins and Cay Sal are a minimum of 7 days. Certain trips
like Columbus Bank are 9 day 8 night due to the remote location and travel
time.
7 day 6 night itinerary for dive adventure trips to the Little Bahama
Bank: The Dream Team offers you the best in week long diving trips and
snorkeling trips. Our participants say . . .'There is no competition! Generally
the weather is beautiful but occasionally it might effect the itinerary. With
good weather a typical week on the Little Bahama Bank will go as follows. If
you charter the whole boat as a group, you can of course create your own
itinerary. Day 1) Saturday, check in between 4.00pm-7.00pm. Time to
unpack, and familiarize yourself with your floating home for the week. You are
free to leave for dinner. When you return an orientation will be given on
emergency procedures and information to ensure you get the fullest enjoyment
from of your dive adventure. We depart Palm Beach Saturday evening for our overnight
cruise to 'The Bahama Islands'. Day 2) Wake up to breakfast in the
beautiful Bahamas. As soon as Bahamas customs and immigration open at 9.00am
your captain will get the paperwork completed, soon after we are on our way.
This morning we will be heading North to the prime dive sites. Before noon
we'll stop around Memory rock at Robin's reef for the first dive. From there we
go to colorful Hogfish reef, then to Sugar Wreck for an afternoon and a night
dive. We frequently snorkel & dive with large friendly turtles on this
ancient wreck. Nighttime we anchor up in a calm safe area for overnight.
Stargazing is a wonderful pastime to enjoy during your night Day 3)
Breakfast around 8:00 am, first dive the Mountains a beautiful 60 to 90
feet dive. From there we might cruise for dolphins. We often come across huge
turtles, rays, flying fish, large game fish and other open ocean wonders whilst
cruising. When the Spotted Dolphins find us, we watch from the bow for a while,
for photos and video. If they stay we get in for a swim. The encounters length
is entirely up to the dolphins. The prime dolphin ground is an ocean paradise
named 'White Sand Ridge'. The depth here is between 15-30ft(5-10m). The water
is crystal clear with a white sandy bottom. From the deck the scenic stripes of
turquoise sapphire and azure blue meander across the surface of the ocean. This
phenomenal setting adds to the magic of the amazing dolphin encounters. The
afternoon would find us at Muriel's Gardens at 40 to 70 feet feeding Caribbean
Reef Sharks, a real dive adventure. The evening might be the Dry Bar a shallow (15ft) reef with
turtles and maybe lobsters. At night again we would anchor in calm area.
Day 4) As yesterday we will do a morning dive probably on Mt Olympias a 60
to 100 feet coral ridge on the edge of a wall. Between the diving and
snorkeling you can do a number of fun things. You may choose to relax and
conserve energy, for the next stop - our top deck is great for sunbathing.
Listen to some music, make new friends, read, watch a documentary, or a movie
on video. You may want to try your hand at deep-sea fishing, catch a Tuna or
Wahoo great for suishi. You can also savor the delicious meals on board, some
mouth watering enjoyable moments Night time, if we're lucky, we may experience
a night dolphin encounter, a magical occurrence
The stuff of dreams.
Day 5) More diving, snorkeling, dolphins, fishing and more. We scuba dive
four to five times a day depending on what the group wants. Some groups prefer
diving others prefer dolphins and some like fishing. You let us know what you
like and we'll make your adventure trip enjoyable. Day 6) This morning we will
once again explore the ocean environment, spending the first part of the
morning diving up north. Today could be the day for you daring scuba divers to
try our amazing shark dive, it's also the day we arrive back into Grand Bahama
island. Anyone wishing to souvenir shop or explore Grand Bahama can do so. We
clear Bahamas customs and immigration late Thursday, and cruise overnight to
Palm Beach. Day 7) Friday A light continental style breakfast will be
served this morning. After clearing US immigration and customs at the Port of
