The most isolated
bank of The Bahamas, the Cay Sal bank, sits just off the
north central coast of Cuba. These mostly uninhabited, rocky
islets serve as home base to a few itinerant Bahamian fishermen
and feature truly remote and pristine diving. Blue holes
and shallow reefs, combined with vertigo-inducing walls
washed in the clear waters of the Gulf Stream, create incredible
dive sites.
Cay Sal is not your normal dive area. The ratio of land
space to ocean space within The Bahamas gives visiting divers
tremendous potential for marine exploration and this is
one of the great outside edges of The Bahamas. Visited only
via live-aboard dive vessels, divers dropping into these
waters have the opportunity to view sites that have rarely
felt the presence of a divers hand or fin. The rarity of
human visitors allows an honest and true interaction between
human and inhabitants of the ocean.
Shallow areas give divers the chance to
view marine life with an extended amount of time underwater.
Deep walls and blue holes offer visitors unique experiences
and the opportunity to see things few divers ever will.
