Diving on the Bahamas Aggressor liveaboard
The Bahamas offers exceptional diving conditions with warm waters year-round, typically ranging from 75 to 80 F (24 to 27 C) in winter, and around 78 to 84 F (25 to 29 C) in summer. Diving from the Bahamas Aggressor is a diverse and thrilling experience.
You’ll have the opportunity for wall dives along dramatic drop-offs, exhilarating drift dives with oceanic currents, exploration of captivating wreck sites, night dives, and leisurely, shallow reef dives among vibrant coral formations. This variety truly sets apart the diving in the Bahamas—from encounters with sharks and pelagics to unique topography, there is something for every diver’s preference.
Leaving from Nassau, guests visit the impressive wreck of the SS Sapona steamer, Exuma Cays Land and Sea Park, and southwest Eleuthera to dive the Lost Blue Hole and Periwinkle Reef. During the summer, the Bahamas Aggressor visits Tiger Beach, Bimini, and remote areas around the West End of Grand Bahama Island for up-close encounters with large pelagic life. Diving up to five times each day, guests can anticipate ample opportunity to search for hammerheads and bull sharks.
The stand-out Exuma Cays Land and Sea Park is well-known for an extensive and healthy reef, species diversity, and incredible underwater topography, including walls, cavernous swim-throughs, and fast-paced drift dives.
This trip is designed to accommodate divers of various skill levels, making it an excellent choice for beginners and advanced divers alike. Advanced open water and nitrox certifications are recommended, however, given that deep, wreck, and drift dives are offered. All dive gear can be rented on board, though guests should reserve in advance to ensure availability of properly fitting gear.
Highlights:
- Average of 27 dives on 7-night charters and 42 dives on 10-night charters
- Nitrox available
