Diving
There are many wonderful dives around the north coast of the Dominican Republic. Below you can find a brief description of what's available. Not all dives are available all the time, it depends on both your diving level and conditions on the day as to which dives are the most suitable. Your PADI qualified guides' knowledge of the ocean, tides, currents and the sea floor is second to none and they will advise you as to which dive is most suitable for any given day.
You must be PADI certified (or the equivalent for open water deep dives). Please bring your Padi certificate with you.
