BAHAMAS ISLANDS



AQUA CAT
August 2 - 9, 2008

Join HUC trip leaders Sarah Lee and Mark Metz as we head to the Bahamas aboard the Aqua Cat.   Imagine sinking your toes into sugar sand, snorkeling or diving among the lemon sharks and sting rays, or hiking the trails of pirates and bootleggers of years gone by. No crowds, no set itineraries, nothing to do but sit back, relax and choose from an incredible variety of liveaboard activities including scuba diving, snorkeling, kayaking, fishing, sunbathing, and island exploring.

 

Your Bahamas scuba diving adventure will include painted walls, friendly grouper, thrilling shark encounters, drift dives and mysterious blue holes. You will experience truly virgin diving in the Exumas. The Aqua Cat enables you to scuba dive remote walls, wrecks, and coral reefs with sharks.  For over 30 years, much of the northern Exumas has been a National Underwater Park with no fishing, spearfishing or collecting allowed.  You will have a great time exploring the 200 mostly uninhabited islands with their many beautiful beaches in the northern Exumas.
