Galapagos liveaboard diving is on every diver’s bucket list for good reason. As a UNESCO World Heritage site, the Galapagos National Park is a paradise of protected islands with unique marine life found nowhere else on Earth. Dive adventures here feature encounters with aggregating hammerheads, whale sharks, penguins, marine iguanas, and more. The sheer diversity of rare species is incredible, especially at the isolated Wolf and Darwin Islands, where huge schools of scalloped hammerheads, silky sharks, and tuna swim by. I loved it so much that I am going back and taking Pat on this trip!

With excellent food, service, and the latest safety features, it provides the full package for an unforgettable trip!

Indonesia is a dream destination for many divers, and Bali’s pristine north-eastern region is a macro diver’s paradise. Aside from the beautiful house reef, numerous nearby dive sites offer various diving options, including coral diving, muck diving, and wreck diving. By Boat, it only takes 15 minutes to get to the “Liberty” wreck or to the famous dive spots “Drop off,” “Ulami” and “Coral Garden” in Tulamben. Dive guides are excellent at spotting micro critters such as pygmy sea horses and other small species.
This resort offers incredible value with our all-inclusive package, featuring 7 nights and 8 days of diving and activities. Choose how you want to spend your days!
