Shore Excursions
If you thought our scuba diving trips meant you’d be stranded on a boat for a week, think again. Divers and non-divers enjoy shore excursions. Our jet drive boat, Sea Dog, transports guests from our boat to shore for land-based activities, such as:
- Visiting Exuma Land & Sea Park
- Beachcombing on uninhabited cays
- Learning about uninhabited Bahamian islands during guided walking tours – history, nature, legend and lore
- Encountering local wildlife – sea and shorebirds, iguanas and yes, even pigs
- Relaxing on a secluded beach
The word aqua is in our vessel’s name for a reason, the beautiful aqua colored waters of the Bahamas. Ask our staff for assistance if you’re new to any recreational activity.
- Kayaking along the beach and in the creek amid mangroves
- Learning or mastering stand up paddleboarding (SUPs)
- Snorkeling along the beach and in grottos and discovering life below the waterline
- Kneeboarding or tubing
- Jumping into the water from our make-shift tree swing
- Fishing for local favorites
Dining
Your trip includes three meals a day – breakfast, lunch and dinner – plus snacks. Each is prepared on board by our chef and highlights American and Bahamian cuisine. For the convenience and flexibility of guests, buffet service is featured for breakfast, lunch and most dinners.
The most formal event is a casual sit-down dinner on Thursday. Guests can choose from one of several entrees and wine selections. Seats are unassigned and everyone is encouraged to linger and get to know one another.
If you have special dietary needs or restrictions, please note such on the Trip Application form. With advance notice, our chef can prepare special menus, such as vegan, vegetarian or gluten-free, etc.
The bar opens for those who aren’t planning to go on a night dive. Beverage selections include soft drinks, bottled water, wine, cocktails, rum drinks and local craft beer on tap.
