SCUBA Diving Vacations
WELCOME DIVERS AND
SNORKLERS!
The Best scuba diving vacation in the Bahamas aboard the Best live-aboard "Dolphin Dream".
We give you quality reefs and big animal encounters. Most of our trips are to western edge of The Little Bahama Bank where the reefs are fed by the super warm and clear waters of the Gulfstream. On this edge is the transition zone from deep to shallow waters with towering coral seascapes. These reefs have incredible bio-diversity and prolific fish life, both large and small. You will be immersed in awe-inspiring mounds and canyons covered by both hard and soft corals, sponges, and gorgonians of nearly every size and color. There are big schools of fish swimming over the reef like jacks, grunts, wrasse and chromis. You will visit reefs covered with schools of tropical fish, such as Angel fish, Parrot fish, Grouper, Damsels, Gobies and more. Almost all the species of Caribbean tropical fish can be found on these reefs. Also common are Loggerhead turtles sleeping under ledges, and Hawksbill turtles feeding on sponges.
The Little Bahama Bank boasts a thriving population of both sharks and dolphins. Wild Spotted Dolphin and Bottlenose Dolphin, are friendly, smart and love to play with people. it makes for a once in a lifetime snorkeling experience. We also have thrilling shark feeding dives with Carribean Reef Sharks or see the occasional Tiger Shark, Great Hammerhead, Lemon and Bull Shark.
Definitely some of the best diving in the Bahamas and Caribbean can be had right here. We offer five dives a day, including a night dive every night. Dive sites range from 15 feet to 100 feet, visibility typically 100 plus feet with water temperatures between 75F(23C) in winter to 86F(30C) in summer.

The crew helps you with your gear, helps you in and out of the water, helps with cameras, and helps with bottom times, anything you need, we are there to help.

In 15-20 feet of water lies the wreck of a 330ft. four-masted steel sailing vessel. The nickname “Sugar Wreck” refers to the cargo of molasses she was carrying from Central America via Havana destined for the northeast US. The ship was run aground by a hurricane in the shallow water. about 100 years ago. The ship broke apart and opened up over time, becoming home to an amazing amount of life. Huge resident loggerhead turtles are a highlight, and are the stars of the show on night dives. Sugar Wreck is also home to nurse sharks, octopus, moray eels, black grouper, hundreds of barracuda and literally thousands of fish of every description. Not to be missed!
This is an incredible night dive. Between the turtles, nurse sharks, moray eels, conch, crabs, zillions of fish, plus creatures you have only seen in your imagination you will nearly be out of breath with excitement and awe as you climb back aboard and tell the crew what an incredible dive you just had.
Muriel's Garden
This site is our Carribean Reef shark feeding dive, home to 7 sharks. The reef is a long strip that is oriented North-South. It is surounded by a white sandy bottom. On the eastern side it is about 50' and on the western side it is about 75'. The top of the reef averages about 35-40'. The most beautiful part of this reef is by far it's abundant and diverse sponge and soft coral gardens. Hawksbill turtles hang around here feeding on the sponges. This is truly a color-filled spot in the ocean with many friendly creatures to visit.Mount Olympus
As the name suggests, this site really is “home of the gods”. High-profile coral starts in about 60ft of water and drops off to over 1500ft with a stair-step at about 125ft. Awe-inspiring canyons of coral dwarf the scuba divers, and we occasionally see hammerhead sharks cruising the wall.
Ok...you want a wall dive???...are you sure??? This is the spot that has kept you dreaming. This is a deep dive. It starts like the rest of the dives...with a briefing and a reminder... be safe!.The reef is a N/S ridge that runs for about a 1/2 mile. The sand on the eastern side of this towering living structure is in 100' of water. The sand on the western side is only in 1700' of water. The actual wall starts around 130'. If you are not comfortable with these depths you need not feel slighted on this dive. While the top of the reef is at 60 feet, there is plenty to see at that depth. In fact, that is what most people do on this dive as they want as much bottom time as possible so they can stay in this aquatic paradise.
