The exquisitely clear water in the British Virgin Islands is teaming with marine life and offers some of the best snorkelling and scuba diving in the world.

As well as many great reef dives, there are also several interesting wreck dives, not least the famous Wreck of the Rhone.

Many of the crewed yachts have at least one of the crew members certified to at least Dive Master level and offer diving from onboard the yacht.

In cases where the crew aren't certified, there are some very good rendez vous dive companies who will collect you from your yacht and take you diving.

This is ideal if only one or two in the group are keen divers as the rest of the party can go off and enjoy one of the many other activities on offer.

There is also excellent scuba diving throughout the rest of the Caribbean. Visit our Destinations page and check out each individual island for further information.
