This itinerary involves some long-distance travel, including several overnight cruising periods.

While we endeavour to ensure the number of scheduled dives is fulfilled, bad weather and sea conditions can hinder the vessel's ability to reach or remain at specific dive sites and may impact the number of dives possible.

Your Cruise Director will schedule up to 3 or 4 dives per day, depending on cruising distances; Typically this will comprise 3 day dives and, depending on the boat's location, either a sunset or a night dive.

The following is an example of the 6-night itinerary route, which is only intended as a general indication of the areas covered - the order and time spent at each location may vary from one trip to the next.
