Little Cayman would be an awesome route for Ecplorer Adventures! To dive the Bloody Bay wall from a live aboard would be sweet :)

I would go on the Turks route, I love the macro life, big stuff like sharks& eagle rays, and the walls are so nice down on French cay dive sites. I wish Explorer Adventures could do a boat trip to St Vincent ( hint hint :)!

Turks & Caicos - One of the areas we dive is 'French Cay.' This currently uninhabited island was once used as pirate hideaways and is now a sanctuary for frigate birds, osprey and nesting seabirds. Nurse sharks also mate in the shallow water just off shore each summer. Visibility ranges from 60 to 100 feet and offers a...bundant fish life and large coral and sponges on spectacular walls. www.explorerventures.comRead More

Explorer Ventures Bahamas - Last of the Diving & Dolphin Expeditions. "Sunday we anchored overnight near Tiger Beach & woke to 3-4 Lemon Sharks around the boat. Some crew jumped in for an early morning swim with them. The guests were happy to watch from the salon." The Caribbean Explorer II is now traveling from Freeport back to George Town, Great Exuma.

We are leading a group coming to Turks and Caicos (Neptune Divers) the week of October 24th - October 30th - having our pre trip party this Sunday October 11th - I have been checking the page to see what's been seen in the water recently - I would also be interested in knowing what the air and water temps have been rec...ently - to let our group know. Several of us have been on this trip before, but we are quite excited to return...Read More

Sorry Paula - the temp last week was in the mid 80's, so you can plan on that. And I'll personally guarantee that it'll be at least 50! ;-)

We're looking forward to having you board!

Explorer Ventures Southern Bahamas - Diving & Wild Dolphins - "Bull Reef proved to be swimming with Reef Sharks. Tuesday morning, as we were preparing to depart the mooring, a pod of Spotted Dolphins appeared! I’ve never seen guests move that quickly that early in the morning! ... night dive on the wreck of the Hesperus was really great. Loggerhead turtles were prominent."

Explorer Ventures Did you know...? The Spotted Eagle Ray, also known as the bonnet ray or maylan, belong to the Aetobatus narinari genus. They bear white spots on an inky blue body. They can be 8 feet wide and have been reported to reach 500 lbs and up to 16 ft. long. They are found in almost all tropical waters, including the Caribbean Sea and Gulf of Mexico.
