New
Catamaran: THE BLUE CAT:
We have the largest dive boat on St. Barts
- a very comfortable 48 foot catamaran which was specifically
constructed for diving and snorkeling. The new catamaran
named BLUE CAT is a motor driven with 2 powerful diesel
engines which means our "playing field" is very
large. Even if most of the dive sites are within 5 to 20
minutes from the port, we can take you to some sites rarely
dived because of their isolation.
For your comfort, we only permit a maximum
of 13 divers on board at any time.
The luxe catamaran BLUE CAT offers a large
trampoline and sun deck in front, a second floor to shield
you from the wind and sun. Bathrooms and hot/cold shower
inside and outside are at your disposal. You will enjoy
a cold drink after your dive.
Whether you are planning to take your first
dive or are an experienced diver, St. Barths is an ideal
location for diving. The island is situated on a coral plate
and the maximum depth available is approximately 90 feet.
The dive spots are no more than 5 to 20 minutes from the
harbor of Gustavia. There are reefs, caves, canyons and
4 wrecks in the area (3 fishing boats and a yacht that went
down with the last hurricane). Sea turtles, rays, eels,
tarpon fish, and baby nurse sharks are very common. The
coral is colorful and everything in the water is friendly.
In the winter there are whales that you can hear singing.
In the summer you will occasionally see dolphins. |
