The Phoenix is a catamaran liveaboard sailing in the Bahamas. 8 guests are accommodated in 4 double bed cabins, fully air-conditioned with en-suite bathrooms with running hot and cold water. The lounging rooms are on the main deck, and there is a shaded sundeck to relax. Meals and snacks are served throughout the day ranging from salads and pancakes at breakfast to fried rice, pasta, fajitas, and meatballs for other meals. The interiors are elegant, and the boat has been recently renovated.
Dive sites visited by the Phoenix are located in the protected areas of Exumas Land and Sea Park. The Exumas are an archipelago of more than 350 cays, famed for its natural beauty and biodiversity. Turtles, rays, sharks, jacks, angelfish, and groupers are seen regularly at most sites. Caribbean reef sharks and nurse sharks frequent many of the sites. There are many dive sites to choose from, including walls, drift dives, wrecks, caverns, and blue holes. Each trip offers up to 20 dives off the skiff.

Incredible experience
There was a good mix of dive sites (reefs, sharks, wrecks), with flexibility to see different ones, depending on weather conditions. The crew was very good at their job. The dive masters were clearly well trained, and knew the dive sites and local sea life in-and-out. The captain is also an excellent cook. We never had the same dish twice, and the food was all creative, and just what you need after a day of multiple dives. The crew were quite friendly, and made us feel at home during the whole trip. The catamaran is a great boat to dive from. It is spacious, provides a stable platform, and offers easy entry and exit from the water.

Great Budget Way to Experience the Best of Bahamas Diving
We dove the Clifton area near Nassau instead of the Exumas based on others suggestions. Good choice...MANY shark encounters...MANY large black groupers.

TOP Tauchsafari + TOP Boot
My best safari and dive holiday the past years ( 280 logged dives)The catamaran is super comfy and familiar, u feel like at home after short time.the cabines are nice and clean,Oleg the captain is a excellent chef, the food was super nice during the whole stay. and it was really a familiar cosy atmosphere during the whole stay.the boat has a special flair and its a really special dive safari experience ( not to compare to other dive boats as its small and very private feeling here) its all super individual, the diving is super comfy - straight from the room into water. from the back with 2 entrance with a giant step.Simon the dive instructor was super professional dive guide, we had 17 wonderful dives and i can just recommend to dive with this guy.swiss at its best.we got luck with visibility and the UW world in bahamas is really intact and colorful. Bahamas is my new maldives.We had wonderful sailings in-between nassau-exumas and spend super nice evening up at the starboard, i will never forget this trip and hope to come back soonto Bahamas!

Great trip, great captain & crew, great dives
I had the opportunity to spend a week on the Phoenix. It is a family boat with a great Captain and 2 young and passionate diving instructors. Captain cooks very well every meal. Diving sites are great and we had the opportunity to see providence and others islands. Great diving and human experience.

Our private dive trip!
No other guests! Just got lucky that others cancelled. Great divemaster who really cared to make the dives varied and interesting. He also handled all our gear. Captain with excellent boat handling skills, very considerate about doing loud things (filling tanks, running engine to charge batteries) during our dives so surface time was calm and quiet. Comfortable double beds. Three real meals per day.
- Recommended for
- Very fair price, flexibility and options for diving, 3 real meals per day
