Dive Charter Yacht Options
There are three basic ways we recommend that you can choose to mix scuba diving with a crewed charter yacht vacation.
- Dive-dedicated yachts.
These are yachts, small or large, that are completely equipped to
fulfill the needs of avid divers. These yachts are for experienced or
novice divers who want to make diving the focal point of their charter
vacation. They have sufficient tanks for two dives per day, scuba
equipment; and an insured, experienced dive professional. If you, or a
member of your party needs any kind of training, from Discover Scuba
(Resort course) or Openwater checkouts (Referral course), to Advanced
or Specialty certifications, then one of the crew must be a dive
instructor. Most of the dive-dedicated yachts have an onboard dive
compressor or an efficient plant for ensuring a regular supply of
airfills for the desired number of dives your party requires.
- Dive-oriented yachts.
These are yachts who are seriously interested in having divers aboard,
but who have not made the full commitment that the dive-dedicated
yachts have in one or more of the important areas of equipment,
airfills, or instruction. There must, however, still be an insured
diving professional (dive master or dive instructor) aboard, and if any
training is to take place then the dive professional must be an
instructor.
- Rendezvous diving.
Any yacht in the fleet can coordinate with shore-based operations
throughout the US or British Virgin Islands to take interested members
of your party for a morning or afternoon of diving activities, subject
to availability. Most dive centers are willing to drop off the divers
at a different destination than where they picked up, thus allowing the
non-divers to sail to a different anchorage if desired, while the
others are diving.
