Sample Dive In Programs

Dive In / Discover Scuba
Duration: 3 1/2 hours.
Here's a scuba excursion that requires no prior diving experience! After a short video and a 15-minute class on scuba diving basics and safety, you will put on your equipment and enter the water from the beach, accompanied by an experienced dive instructor. Not far from shore, you will reach the reef, filled with colorful sponges, corals and schools of tropical fish. You will have 30 to 40 minutes to enjoy your dive, then another 30 minutes to swim, snorkel or relax on the beach.

Dive In / Stingray City
Duration: 3 hours.
Truly the dive of a lifetime! Snorkeling with dozens of stingrays will definitely be a highlight of your cruise. This unique dive on a sandbar in water that's only three to four feet deep gives even novice snorkelers a unique opportunity to experience these beautiful and docile marine mammals up close. The shallow water the stingrays inhabit makes this dive accessible to everyone. An underwater camera is a must to capture the moment!
