Who is NOT in the water right now? Friends of St. Thomas, this week we did some fun diving at Ledges of Little St. James and Stragglers.

Oh what fun it is to dive!!! Okay, it's early for Christmas songs, but that's what I'm singing today. We had an AMAZING time with Morgan who earned her Open Water certification yesterday. Stephi, our Captain; Abby our Instructor on the left; and Morgan newly certified on the right.
On Morgan's FIRST open water dive she saw 2 eagle rays, 1 large green turtle, 3 barracude, a southern stingray, tarpon and tons of fish!!! It was amazing. On our second dive we saw a large nurse shark just relaxing under a rock, but the head and tail were out in the open. It was breathtaking.
We had so much fun. If you are interesting in trying diving for the first time, we offer Discover Scuba Diving where you get trained on the boat ride out and get to do a fun dive. We also offer Open Water certifications and Advanced Open Water. We love to teach, we love to dive, and we love to teach diving! 340-642-8701

We had a breakthrough for St. Thomas Diving this week. If you are visiting from the West Coast, we do have 1pm boats!! We realized, coming back from an afternoon adventure, that all of our divers were from California and Oregon. They all said the same thing: With the time change, 8:30AM diving is just too early for them.
We laughed a ton and even on a partly cloudy day, their smiles never dimmed. We got to see some great underwater life and had a great time. So if you want a later boat of 10am or 1pm, please call us and we will get you out in the water. (340) 642-8701
