Scuba Diving and Sailing in The Exumas, Bahamas

$1,845/per person (A $600 deposit will reserve your spot.)

On this charter, Linda’s Sailing Adventures offers scuba diving, snorkeling and sailing. We set sail from Nassau, Bahamas to the remote Exuma Islands on a 65' sailing catamaran. This is the ultimate escape aboard our private dive boat - no crowds, no set itinerary, nothing to do but sit back, relax!

Our ride is a schooner rigged sailing catamaran. While she only draws 2.5 feet, the two center boards can be lowered to an eight feet draft. Passengers are welcome to assist the crew if they wish. Sail among the uninhabited islands under full sail, no noise, just the wind in your face. Our catamaran can take you to isolated beaches where you can sunbathe, explore, kayak, snorkel and fish. You will have an incredible time exploring the 200 mostly uninhabited islands with their many beautiful beaches in the northern Exumas. You are never too young or too old to try snorkeling! Just take one look below the surface and you’ll see that’s where all the action is!

Divers enjoy the amenities on board as well. A compressor, tanks and weights are included. We will have dinghy for transporting passengers to the remote and pristine islands of the Exumas Cays where they can snorkel from the beach in shallow waters. Many of our scuba sites are also excellent for snorkeling. The wall dives that run along the Exuma Sound begin shallow and slope gently until gradually falling over the edge. These sites are conducive to awesome diving and snorkeling simultaneously! Sites like Parrotfish Reef or Flat Rock Reef have a depth of 5’ to 10’ near the islands. Certified divers can enjoy 3-4 dives per day. Dive the reefs, wrecks, walls, drifts, and the blue hole and even a thrilling shark dive! The Exuma Sound is an abyss that runs the length of the eastern Exumas. The coral cover and underwater geography is phenomenal, with swim thru's, tongue and groove coral heads, and prolific sea life. You’ll see large fish and large quantities of fish! Pelagic sightings are a daily occurrence. Sea turtles, eagle rays and sharks abound in this area of the Bahamas!

Our catamaran has four 2-man kayaks onboard. Everyone will find them easy to use. Visit the many beautiful deserted beaches. Explore the creeks of Shroud Cay or Ship’s Channel Cay. Visit Pirate’s Lair where pirates hid 250 years ago to avoid capture. Adventurers enjoy the many trails on the islands of the Exumas. The islands are rich in terrestrial flora and fauna. While the islands are not lush, they are distinctive, colorful, and varied. Pirate's Lair is perfect for exploring the interior of the island.

Hikers heading west can experience the most beautiful sunset from the shores of this deserted island. Booboo Hill is another great place to hike. The rugged shore line of this island has majestic views of the Exuma Sound. There are several nature trails on Warderick Wells that meander around the island. Be sure to climb Boo Boo Hill to enjoy the spectacular view. The Park is made up of 15 major cays encompassing 176 square miles. Just outside the office you'll be greeted by several dozen Bananaquit. Put a little sugar in your hand and before long you'll have several eating out of your hand. Allan’s Cay is one of the last homes of the rare Bahamas rock iguanas. They were once common on most Bahamian Islands, but early settlers nearly hunted them into extinction. As you approach the beach, watch for iguanas crawling out of the woods. They are looking for handouts of bread or fruit from the guests to their island. You will get a kick out of these indigenous iguanas on Allan’s Cay! Feed the iguanas and take lots of pictures since you can only see them on two islands on Earth! Anglers get thrills fishing the waters of the Bahamas.

Our captain is an avid fisherman who enjoys sharing his expertise with any passengers who show an interest in offshore fishing! Trolling from site to site, the catch of the day is prepared for dinner. It will be a fun and relaxing week in one of the most beautiful sailing and diving grounds in the Caribbean. Join us for a new kind of adventure!
