Enjoy the richness and variety that diving in Saba and St Kitts are known for from the comfort of the 35m long, superbly appointed Caribbean Explorer II.

Known as the Unspoiled Queen, Saba offers the very best of Caribbean diving, with topography created by age-old volcanic activity. Eye of the Needle is a popular dive site, showing how interesting the topography can be.

This exciting liveaboard itinerary to some of the more seldom-visited islands of the Caribbean also offers opportunities to dive in St Kitts and St Eustatius, both of which offer even more variety and some superb wrecks, too.
