Operating
since 1985, Underwater Safaris is a
PADI Gold Palm Instructor Development
Center Resort Facility with a  record
for safety unequaled by any other organization.
The dive boats are U.S. Coast Guard
inspected driven by a licensed captain,
and all instructors are PADI-trained
with years of experience leading both
certified and non-certified divers.
For
Divers with less experience we have
sites ranging from depths of 35' to
55' that offer very relaxed diving with
little or no surge or current and outstanding
visibility. More advanced divers would
enjoy the challenge of the Kennedy and
the Miss Opportunity. Certified PADI
Divemasters and Instructors accompany
all divers throughout the dive tour
giving informative pre-dive briefings.
They also point out unique marine life
and any hazards along the way, greatly
enhancing the overall educational value,
safety and enjoyment of the dives.
 Local
weather conditions the day of the dive
determines the best sites to dive. Normally,
we do two dives in the morning; the
first is a reef dive and the second
is a wreck dive. The dive leaves at
approx. 8:30 AM and returns at approx.
12:30 PM. Often we go to Buck Island
Wildlife Refuge and dive the wreck of
the Cartanza Senior. Another favorite
spot is the Navy Barges, a great wreck
dive with lots of intriguing marine
life. All of our certified dives are
guided with a maximum of 10 divers per
instructor with no surge or current
and great visibility!
