The British Virgin Islands offer some of the most varied diving in the Caribbean.

 Suitable for all from the newest diver to the saltiest sea dog! From the healthy star coral reefs of Great Dog to the fish-filled currents flowing around West Dog and Cockroach Islands, from the history of the wreck of the RMS Rhone (voted best wreck in the Caribbean by Skin Diver magazine) to the pelagic treats to be found at the Chikuzen you are sure to find what you have been looking for in diving.  Recent results from the readers at Rodales' Scuba Diving magazine have put the BVI on the world diving stage.  Top Wrecks, Top Snorkeling, and Top Beginner Diving awards for 2005 and 2006 show that the word has gotten out.

New divers can take comfort from the sandy sea floor surrounding our islands which limits the vast majority of our dive sites to a maximum depth of 80 feet.

More experienced divers will be rejuvenated by watching huge schools of fish feeding on the nutrient rich currents at Dry Rocks East or the Visibles.  And with our Nitrox System, you can now safely extend that bottom time without the worry of reaching your Oxygen limits due to depth concerns.  You'll get more time to see more exciting action underwater.

We have rich coral reefs like Great Dog and Ginger Island, undersea pinnacles at The Visibles and The Invisibles, reefs built on huge underwater boulders such as Flintstones or Joe's Cave, plus wash rocks at Dry Rocks East and Dolphin Rocks, and wrecks including The RMS Rhone, Chikuzen, Marie L / Pat, and the Inganess Bay.  The sheer size of the BVI make for a great variety of topography and conditions at our many dive sites.

Descriptions of the sites that we dive are listed in the following pages. Please bear in mind that not all sites may be diveable at a given time due to wind, waves, currents or the presence of other dive boats. Your boat crew will select the most appropriate sites for the dive group and will try to prevent repetition of a given dive site, unless otherwise requested.

The depths noted are the maximum depths feasible on a given site - some sites can be done at shallower depths if necessary and some are multi-level with only the first part of the dive close to the maximum depth.

The experience level noted is only meant as a rough guide - please bear in mind that our guides are highly experienced at leading divers on these sites and so it is certainly possible for a novice to dive and enjoy the more experienced sites by listening closely to and staying with the dive leader.
