Develop this awe whether beginner, or experienced, and let Aldebaran guide you to the allures of the sea.
Some great dive sights in the BVI are:
Painted Walls
30' - 50'
Beginner to intermediate.
An extraordinary dive in the BVI's where divers can explore the Point of Dead Chest Island. There is a large swim through with brilliant coral and colors. Make sure you poke your head into "The Aquarium", a lovely swim through over a shallow section of the dive.
The Wreck of the Rhone
40' - 90'
Intermediate to Advanced
The most famous dive sight in the BVI's, this wreck offers an amazing technical dive. The sunken MS Rhone comes to life with the gorgeous coral formations and massive schools of Grunts and Hogfish that inhabit its structure. The Rhone has the notoriety of being in a major motion picture, "The Deep".
Angel Fish Reef
40' - 70'
Intermediate
This sight leads you on a wonderful tour on the fringe of the famous Norman Island. Looking into the deep blue for passing Pelagics, follow the sand in constant search of sleeping Rays. Once you hit the aptly named Fish Book Rock, turn left into the labyrinth of canyons where one can see a plethora of exotic fish. On one occasion we had a small Southern Sting Ray guide us right through the whole sight.
White Bay, Jost Van Dyke
20' - 70'
Beginner
This is one of the captain’s favorite dives, probably because of the pure simplicity. This 60' wall always has a little something special to offer, from a sleeping nurse shark to a plethora of Lobsters coming out of their caves. Afterwards, shed your gear, and hit the beautiful white sandy beach.
