    Have you ever explored the magical world that lives under the ocean’s surface surrounding Grand Bahama Island? It’s a diver’s paradise and a great way to continue exploring the island far beyond the sand!


    When you dive deep into the crystal-clear waters of Grand Bahama, you’ll find detailed coral gardens, playful dolphins and inviting blue spaces. There is so much to discover beyond the beach! Oddly enough, many people barely enter this magical world. Instead, they seem to prefer other land-based adventures like relaxing in a chair by the pool and catching some rays. Trust us—if you go out on a dive boat, you’ll be completely captivated by everything you see in this amazing underwater world.


    Grand Bahama Island’s reputation as a diver’s paradise has been growing ever since the earliest episodes of Sea Hunt were filmed here in the late 1950s.


    DIVE WITH DOLPHINS


    Grand Bahama Island is one of the few places you are guaranteed to dive with dolphins in the wild. This is done through the Underwater Explorers’ Society’s (UNEXSO) “Dolphin Dive” program, where local dolphins from the Dolphin Experience frolic with divers at a reef about a mile off shore. Many people can only imagine getting this close to a dolphin in the wild. Don’t miss out on this rare and amazing experience––swim with them right here on Grand Bahama Island.


    DIVE WITH SHARKS


    If you want to dive with sharks, there are two feeding programs you can participate in on Grand Bahama Island; one with UNEXSO and another with West End Watersports. In both programs, an experienced shark feeder wearing chain mail offers fish to a swirling group of Caribbean reef sharks. Anyone who’s done this dive will tell you that it makes for an incredible photo opportunity.!


    The adventure will typically begin with a detailed briefing at the dock. The shark feeder will run through the various phases of the dive, then you will travel to the dive site together via boat. Once in the water, you will soon be amazed at the sights around you. You will often see 10-25 sharks, varying in length from 4 to 9 feet, many of which will come quite close to the group. Definitely an experience to remember!


    With a diverse daily activities program, marvelous beaches, sports, and fun, your vacation is bound to become unforgettable. Enjoy being part of the many activities under the warm tropical sun, accompanied by people who every day put on their best smile. Breathtaking views and a lively entertainment-fun atmosphere make this an ideal setting to enjoy of your favorite pastimes with the opportunity to create new memories. Shark and Dolphin Encounters are just the beginning! For more information visit https://bit.ly/3av4R7k.
