BAHAMA
DIVERS MORNING 2-TANK DIVE
Price:
$109.00 per person
Morning 2-tank dive trips cater to our certified
divers who want to explore the walls, reefs, and
wrecks surrounding New Providence Island. Each morning
all of the boats going out do this type of dive
trip.
Your first dive is a deeper dive to one of a variety
of beautiful sites.
Including any of the following:
The Lost Blue
Hole: Perhaps the most unusual dive site
in the Bahamas, visited regularly by Bahama Divers.
A natural hole in the ocean floor about 100ft
across and 20ft deep. The perimeter is in 40ft
and you will dive to a depth of 80ft max. The
perimeter is dotted with isolated coral heads,
each a beehive of activity. Here you will find
large schools of reef fish, such as sergeant majors,
chromis, angelfish and other species of fish creating
halos around each coral head. Groupers, giant
southern stingrays, eels and numerous sharks are
also near the colorful sponges and corals.
Barracuda Shoals: The finest shallow reef in the area, with depths
that never exceed 30ft. Barracuda typifies the
look and life of a healthy, shallow, Bahamian
reef. Actually 3 reefs in a triangular formation
with a vast variety of corals competing with sponges
and other invertebrates for space. Groupers, angelfish,
filefish, schools of grunts and snappers are abundant
on this reef.
Miranda Wreck: In 55ft of water this 90' wreck lies on her side
in two sections. A good medium depth wreck to
give the diver ample time to explore and observe
the rays, and many tropical fish that make their
home on and around the Miranda.
Fish Hotel: Home of thousands of schooling, juvenile bluestriped
and French grunts, yellow goatfish and Bermuda
chub. The reef is literally blanked with them.
Hard coral growth is minimal, giving way instead
to soft corals such as gorgonians, seawhips and
seafans. Depths on this flat, circular reef range
from about 10ft to 35 ft. Because there are so
many fish we say "the fish check in and forget
to check out!!!"
Shipyard: There are four wrecks at this site sitting in
90ft of water. The Ana Lise, a 150' freighter
lying on her port side, the 95' Helena C, the
90' Bahama Shell, and the newest one is a wooden
hulled cargo ship sunk in early 1994.
Mahoney Wreck: This old girl dates back to the 1800's and should
not be missed. As a navigational hazard it was
blown apart and now lies scattered in 30'. An
incredible collection of groupers, snappers, grunts,
pipefish, angelfish, butterflies, eels and invertebrates
are always present on her scattered remains. You
can hand feed fish here in quantities that will
amaze you.
Lighthouse
Wreck & Reef: In 35ft of water lies
a 65' wreck. This site is located by the Nassau
Harbour Lighthouse and it is surrounded by concrete
blocks that form an artificial reef where you
can see Caribbean tropical fish, lobsters and
nurse sharks.
We decide on the specific site we
will be diving on the actual dive day. This keeps
us flexible and gives us an idea of what the best
weather conditions are and what everyone on the
boat would prefer to do.
