  Looking for a fun Caribbean live-aboard at a great value? Just south of the Bahamas, you'll find it in the beautiful Turks and Caicos Islands!

  West Caicos, French Cay and the northwest walls of the Caicos Islands are uninhabited and pristine. You'll enjoy great wall diving with visibility generally over 100 feet, and encounter eagle rays, sharks and other pelagics.

  October usually offers excellent conditions in the Turks & Caicos Islands, with warm, clear, flat seas. The walls begin around 45' to 50', so this is a destination for intermediate divers where Nitrox is very useful. This is also a great opportunity to earn Nitrox or Advanced Open Water certification on board.

  The healthy reefs and marine life of this unspoiled destination will astound you. Reserve your space today!

  
  

  Package includes:

  • 7 nights aboard the Turks & Caicos Explorer II in air-conditioned double occupancy cabins with private bath
    
  • All meals and between meal snacks, except Friday evening dinner out on the town
    
  • All alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages
    
  • 4-5 dives a day Sunday-Thursday, conditions permitting, with two dives on Friday morning
    
  • Tanks, weights and weight belt
    
  • Complimentary scuba refresher course if you haven't dived within the last 12 months
    

  Not Included: airfare to Providenciales (PLS), airport transfers (approximately $25 per person each way in shared taxi), equipment rental if needed, Nitrox if desired ($150 for the week), crew gratuity, dinner the last night out on the town, plus port charge of $85 and fuel surcharge (currently $40) payable on board.

  Air Connections:

  Please note that flights can be booked 330 days in advance, in late November 2018.

  Easy air connections are available to Providenciales (PLS) on American Airlines. Please enter Business ExtrAA # 783097 and make sure your gay travel dollars are counted!

  United, Delta, US Airways, Spirit, Air Canada and West Jet also fly to the Turks & Caicos Islands from North America.
