What is a small ship cruise like? Small ship cruising is an appealing alternative to conventional land tours and larger cruise ships. We offer a richer travel experience – one that goes beyond the typical tourist sites. Imagine sinking your toes into sugar sand, snorkeling/diving among the lemon sharks and sting rays, or hiking the trails of pirates and bootleggers of years gone by. The ideal way to explore the world is on a small ship, enjoying access to places of natural beauty not possible any other way. Small ship cruising appeals to travelers who prefer a relaxed, comfortable travel style with the emphasis on the destination. Aqua Cat takes you beyond the confines of conventional tourism for meaningful experiences with people and places.
What is our itinerary? You will have a great time exploring the 365 mostly uninhabited islands of the Exumas with their many beautiful beaches. In addition to the incredible scuba diving and snorkeling, you can beachcomb, kayak, explore the islands, or take advantage of all the great photo opportunities like feeding the iguanas on Allan’s Cay. While in Nassau and Paradise Island, you can enjoy shopping, casinos, and nightlife.
What are the meals like? We serve three gourmet meals a day. Snacks and fresh fruits are always available. Most meals will be a combination of Bahamian and American cuisine. A selection of beverages is always on hand, from soft drinks, juices and lemonade, to beer, wine and rum drinks. Dinner is ashore Friday evening and is not included in the price of the trip.
What type of adventures can I look forward to experiencing on my cruise? Eco-adventurers enjoy the many opportunities offered aboard the Aqua Cat and the Sea Dog. The Sea Dog is our 28’ launch that can take you to isolated beaches where you can sunbathe, explore, kayak, snorkel or fish. You will enjoy feeding and photographing the iguanas on Allan’s Cay. You can visit the headquarters of the Exumas Land & Sea Park on Warderick Wells and explore the many trails. Be sure to check out the whale bones on the island. Don’t miss the blow hole! You can also kayak the creeks that meander through Shroud Cay. These creeks are nurseries for many varieties of fish and sharks. For those interested in bird watching, the Exumas are a nesting area for many species of seabirds including White-Tailed Tropicbirds, Audubon Shearwaters, Brown Noddies, and Bridled and Sooty Terns. The possibilities are endless!
Do I need any special gear for the eco-adventures? The Exuma Cays offers many opportunities to go ashore and explore and enjoy the uninhabited beaches. For these occasions, we highly recommend proper footwear for these eco adventures. Flip flops are not suitable. We suggest water shoes or TEVA type sandals. Sneakers are fine but they might get wet!
How is the snorkeling? The reefs are perfect for snorkeling with gin clear waters and lots of fish, both small and large! You can snorkel anytime the boat is anchored! We offer a variety of snorkeling adventures- drift Wax Cut, mangrove nurseries, feed the sting rays and swim with Lemon sharks at the Land and Sea Park! You need to bring mask, fins and snorkel. If you don’t have them, we have some available for rent. If you have not snorkeled before, the crew will be happy to instruct you.
Can I go fishing? Yes, as long as you aren’t in the Exumas Land & Sea Park. We have the Sea Dog, our 28’ launch that is used for trolling, or taking fisherman to shores or coves. We furnish all of the fishing gear.
Can I scuba dive? Yes, if you are a certified diver. If not, you may take a full certification course (prior arrangement required) or a Discover Scuba Diving course. The minimum age is 10 years old for scuba courses. We have Snuba gear for the younger set too. Medical release required.
What is a Discover Scuba Diving course? For a fee, our dive instructor will teach you the skills to safely enjoy shallow scuba dives. You will then be able to scuba dives with your instructor on the Aqua Cat. (This course does not make you a certified diver). Medical release required.
Will I see sharks? Yes! Many of our sites are frequented by Caribbean Reef Sharks and Nurse Sharks. We normally offer one shark feed on each trip. This is the perfect time to see sharks up close and in action!
What is the diving like? While the Northern Exumas are only 30 miles from Nassau, there are no daily dive operators in this area. You can experience truly virgin diving. The Exumas have walls starting at 40′, as well as drift, reef, and shark dives. There is a large Blue Hole between Nassau and the Exumas. For over 30 years, much of the northern Exumas has been a National Underwater Park with no fishing, spear fishing or collecting allowed. Because of these laws, there are miles of undersea gardens in which coral, sponges and fish abound. Turtles, rays and sharks are seen regularly on most dive sites. Goliath grouper truly are gargantuan in the Exumas!
How many dives per day? Divers will have the opportunity to log up to 5 dives each day Sunday through Wednesday. Thursday, 4 day dives are offered and that evening is the Captain’s dinner with presentations. Two dives will be offered on Friday. Up to 26 dives per week maximum.
Is Nitrox available? Yes. Nitrox is available on board for $150 per week per diver. Nitrox is 32%. Get Nitrox certified on board!
Can I do open water checkouts? Yes. You can complete your open water checkout dives with one of our Scuba World instructors.

What dive gear do I need to bring? Certified scuba divers need snorkel, fins, mask, and regulator with pressure gauge, buoyancy compensator, u/w watch, and depth gauge. For night dives, a dive light and cyalume stick (or substitute) is required. We provide tanks, weights and weight belts. Between fall and spring, a wetsuit is recommended. See, “Do I need a wetsuit” below.
Can I rent dive gear? If you do not have your own equipment, we have “top of the line” BCs, wetsuits, dive lights and regulators with octopus and gauges available for rent. All rentals must be arranged prior to departure.
What are the $250 fees? This covers Bahamian Port Taxes and Land and Sea park fees.
Do I need a wetsuit? Between fall and spring, a wetsuit is recommended. The chart below will give you a general idea of the water temperatures and what weight wetsuit you will need. When deciding which wetsuit works for you, consider that you will have the opportunity to dive as many as five times a day and it takes your body a while to warm up. Wetsuit needs are different for everyone. A general guideline follows.
Average Temperatures Water Temp 72-75F, Air Temp 72-80F, Full Wetsuit 5mm Wetsuit needs vary from individual to individual. These are approximates.
What should I bring? The atmosphere on board the Aqua Cat is always relaxed and casual. You’ll spend your days in bathing suits and casual wear. Bring shorts or jeans, T-shirts and a windbreaker. Also bring a pair of sandals, hat, suntan lotion (non-oil) and sunglasses. In winter, a sweatshirt or sweater is advisable. The ship’s boutique offers everything you need for your cruise (swimsuits, t-shirts, shorts, sundresses, hats and toiletries).

Dinner the first night is a casual BBQ on the alfresco deck followed by introductions and ship’s orientation. You are free to explore the island that evening. Enjoy shopping, casinos, and nightlife in Paradise Island and Nassau! We shove off for the Exumas very early…around 4 AM on Sunday morning! Once we leave port, you’ll escape the hustle and bustle of the city to the pristine Exumas! Enjoy incredible sunsets and breathtaking scenery. We return to Nassau on Friday afternoon. The Captain’s Farewell Cocktail party is at 6 PM. Dinner on Friday evening is your responsibility ashore. Go play or stay aboard. Dinner reservations and recommendations can be made by the crew.

Insurance TRAVEL INSURANCE: We urge you to consider purchasing travel & dive insurance for your trip. In order to maintain our reasonable cost & high level of service, we do not automatically insure your trip against the adverse affects of weather or other factors beyond our control. Your holiday represents a very large investment, and unforeseen circumstances such as injury or sickness, airline issues, and family emergencies can easily affect your ability to travel.
Method of Payment MasterCard, Visa, American Express and Discover, cash, personal check, money order and Venmo are all accepted at Scuba World.
What travel documents are needed? All travelers to the Bahamas need a passport. Immigration and Customs clearance is at the airport since you must fly into Nassau to board. Be sure your plane ticket matches your documentation. If any visa or covid testing is necessary, Scuba World will inform you as we get closer to departure.
How do I get to the docks? With prior arrangements, we provide transfers to/from the boat and the Nassau International Airport on Saturdays at a cost of $40 per person. We have contracted with Island Escape Tours to provide this service. Local contact for IET is 242-449-7862 You will find your Island Escape Tour ride outside the airport and across the 2 lanes(there will be a median between the two lanes). Turn right and you will find Mr Wright near the covered bench stop. There is a sign with the boat name on it right there. Be sure to double check that you are on the right bus/van! No credit for missed transfers.
What time can we board? For flight planning, boarding is at 6 pm on Saturday. We offer a welcome briefing, dinner and an important safety briefing immediately afterwards. It is important that you are there for this informative meeting! Please plan your flights accordingly. If you are arriving earlier, you may drop bags off at the boat prior to 6:00 PM. The Aqua Cat returns to Nassau Friday afternoon. You will be responsible for dinner ashore Friday evening. We require that you disembark Saturday by 8:00 AM. You may leave your bags at the boat if you have a late afternoon flight.
How much spending money do I need? You will need enough for the crew gratuity (10-15% recommended), spending money for an evening ashore (shopping, drinks, souvenirs), and dinner ashore Friday evening. The Bahamas currency is Bahamian dollars, which are equivalent to the U.S. dollar and are interchangeable. If you have US dollars, there is no need to exchange currency. You can charge your specialty classes, boutique purchases, and crew gratuity to your cabin account. Aqua Cat accepts VISA, MasterCard and Discover.
What is the recommended gratuity? The live-aboard business is a service industry, and although the general public is seldom aware of it, gratuities are a major part of a crewmember’s salary. Few other recreational activities rely so heavily upon the professionals in charge for your enjoyment and safety. A gratuity of 15% is customary, but many leave more when they feel the service was outstanding. If you are disappointed with the service, you should inform the Captain of your feelings right away so he may rectify the situation.
What if I need to be contacted in an emergency? If someone needs to get in contact with you because of a true emergency, they may contact our office and we will relay the message.
What is the minimum age for passengers on the Aqua Cat? If you charter the full boat, there is no minimum age but keep in mind that water savvy children will most enjoy this type of vacation. Children under the age of 15 must be under the supervision of a parent or guardian at ALL times. Our crew is most gracious and good with all ages however, the crew will not provide child care services or supervision at ANY time. Families that wish to join us are welcome. It is recommended that children be divers or snorkelers to fully enjoy the activities on board.

Combine the lush vegetation, Mayan influence, Tahitian elements, delicious food, wonderful people, excellent service, great amenities, comfortable accommodations, superb location and the wide variety of entertainment options, and it’s no wonder Ramon’s Village Resort in San Pedro on the island of Ambergris Caye has been the first choice of travelers to Belize since 1987. Styled after the Tahitian cottages on the Polynesian island of Bora Bora, our cabanas are built from native materials by craftsmen utilizing the same skill and techniques the islanders used in the days of the great sailing ships. We’re not a concrete condo encompassed by concrete parking lots. Ramon’s Village is a sanctuary nestled in a tropical garden of Royal Palms, bougainvillea, lilies, hibiscus and dozens of other types of tropical flora. Surrounded by the plant life are Mayan sculptures that provide a glimpse of the civilization that preceded us in this Caribbean paradise. Once inside our enchanted village, you’ll be in a world of your own choosing.
When God created the heavens and earth He was exceptionally generous with the tiny nation later to be known as Belize. Blessed with both the World’s Second Largest Barrier Reef, at 186 miles, and three of the four living atolls in the Western Hemisphere, Belize is a Scuba Diver’s Paradise. Because of its spectacular dive sites, Belize attracts divers from around the world and the Ramon’s Village Divers’ dock is the perfect launching point for any underwater excursion. Ramon’s Village Divers is the oldest and most respected dive shop in all of Belize.
From exploring Jacques Cousteau’s world-famous Blue Hole to the enjoyment of the undersea wonders of Lighthouse Reef Atoll and the Turneffe Atoll, to the incredible beauty of Hol Chan Marine Reserve and the unforgettable heart-pounding adventure of “swimming with the sharks” at Shark Ray Alley, you’ll never see anything like this again. We truly do have an extraordinary collection of God’s spectacular trophies in His underwater showcase of wonderful things.
Ramon’s Village Divers maintains a fleet of four skiffs ranging in size from twenty-eight feet to thirty-four feet. These boats are used for dives along the Belize Barrier Reef in the vicinity of Ambergris Caye and carry up to eight divers plus crew. The close proximity of the Barrier Reef, just over a quarter mile offshore, allows us to choose from thirty or forty named sites within a five to fifteen minute boat ride from our dock. Ramon’s Village Divers offer daily trips at 9:00am, 11:30am and 2:00pm to dive sites along the Belize Barrier Reef adjacent to Ambergris Caye.
Since the dive sites are within minutes of our dock, we return to our dock between dives to exchange scuba tanks and fulfill your surface interval requirement. This allows our divers to choose any combination of dives each day. Ramon’s Village Divers also offers its guests double or triple tank dives along the Belize Barrier Reef. Our dive sites offer both the novice and experienced diver incredible dive opportunities. Our dive masters and dive guides will customize your dive based upon your skill level.
The Miss Gina, our Pro forty-two foot dive boat, carries up to sixteen divers plus crew making it an excellent choice for dive groups and can also be used for dive trips to the Turneffe Atoll. The Lady Grace, our Newton forty-six foot dive boat, can accommodate up to twenty-four divers plus crew and provides a comfortable outing for those wanting to dive Jacques Couteau’s Blue Hole.

Cage Diving with the Great White Sharks of Guadalupe Island
2024 Rates
6-day/5-night trip $3,725 per person — based on double occupancy
Park Fees: $225 paid upfront
Port Fees: $35 paid onboard
Air travel not included. Hotels not included if needed. Tip for crew not included. Nitrox and Rental not included. Transfers not included. Alcohol not included.
Boarding is at 7:30 p.m. on September 15 and disembarking by 7:00 p.m. on September 20
Why cage dive with the great white sharks? Great white shark encounters at Guadalupe Island are nothing short of spectacular. It’s simply the best destination in the world for calm clear water and consistently high probability of multiple shark encounters per day. The sheer number of sharks in the bay that we cage dive in is amazing. On many dives, we see two to three great whites, although we have seen up to 47 sharks on one trip! Guadalupe Island is home to at least 366 individually identified sharks and still counting. Adventuring out to Guadalupe Island is all about getting in the water and being closer to great white sharks then you ever imagined. It’s a one-day open ocean sail out to Guadalupe Island. The island is 25 miles long and we anchor where the waters are almost always calm. The truly amazing thing about this destination is the sheer number of great white sharks.
Are great white sharks endangered? Yes, the white shark was listed as an endangered species in 2006, and is estimated to have declined in population close to 80% in North America over the past 14 years. Guadalupe Island was designated as a Biosphere Reserve by the Mexican government in 2005, and since has seen an increase in white shark population. We can attribute this to protection efforts from conservationists and the ecotourism industry increasing education and changing attitudes towards this important predator. One living shark is much more valuable over time that one dead shark.
Will I see sharks? In 20 years of diving and up to 25,000 dives each season at Guadalupe, there have only been a handful of times that we haven’t experienced really good sharking. This white shark population is getting healthier and healthier and continues to grow with more than 370 individual sharks now identified in the bay that we dive in.
Is diving with sharks safe? Yes! For your safety, all shark cage diving is done using a hookah system – otherwise known as surface supplied air – and our custom designed cages. These cages are designed to provide maximum protection for you and for our sharks. It is vitally important that the sharks are never affected or injured during their interaction with us.
How many dives to I get? 3 dives a day (for 3 days) in the submersible cages (certified divers only). Virtually unlimited diving in the surface cages. You do not need to be certified to jump into the water with the great white sharks on one of our trips. Surface cages are open to divers and non-divers alike. Please note that you do need to be a certified diver to enjoy the submersible cages.
What is the visibility like? Visibility is almost always 100-120 feet, sometimes 150 feet.
What is included? Accommodation, all meals (continental breakfast, breakfast, lunch, dinner and dessert), non-alcoholic beverages and snacks, daily room service, towels, in-water divemastering, end of trip DVD and onboard facilities such as the hot tub and lounge.
Are drinks included? A selection of complimentary beverages includes water, soft drinks, tea and coffee. Alcoholic beverages are not included.
Will I get seasick? Motion sickness medication should be brought along in the event that we encounter rough seas. We want you to be comfortable. The boat will spend the night in calm anchorages.
Can I take advanced certification or specialty courses on board? Our instructors are available for further training in SCUBA. AWARE Shark Specialty will be available. Prior arrangements recommended. Instructional materials not included. Medical release required. Please contact Scuba World for more information.
IMPORTANT NOTE: If you make your own way to Ensenada from the United States, you MUST STOP at the IMN Immigration Office at the border and OBTAIN an FMT TOURIST PERMIT. The Mexican Authorities will not allow anybody without this permit to board our ships.
What are the $225 fees? This covers the Guadalupe Island Park Fees. There is also a $35 per person fee for port fees that is payable on board.
Average Temperatures Water Temp 72F, Air Temp 75F. Full Wetsuit 3mm, Full 5mm or Full 7mm. Wetsuit needs vary from individual to individual. These are approximates.
Deposits/Payments A $250.00 per person deposit is due when the reservation is made with Scuba World. The second payment of $1,000 is due by February 15, 2023. The third payment of $1,000 is due by November 15, 2023. The third payment of $1,000 is due by February 15, 2024. The balance of the trip must be paid by July 1, 2024 or you forfeit your spot.
