INDIA & ANDAMAN ISLANDS CRUISE (8 Days)

up to 30 Dives in total - 8 Days / 8 Nights .


FIRST DAY - Pick up from Hotel or Airport in Port Blair as required.
DAY 1 - After an all inclusive dive and safety briefing you will do a few easy dives on each of North, Middle and South button Islands (with a chance of a beach visit in between times). Dive number 4 will be a night dive also on South Button.
DAY 2 - Dive numbers 5 and 6 will be a little further north on Button Shoal, a great place for Napoleon Wrasse!! This is likely to be followed with 7 and 8 on Campbell Shoals, the second one being a sunset dive. Overnight cruise to Narcondam Island.
DAY 3 & 4 - Some fantastic diving planned for two days here on the island that Jacques Cousteau described as one of his favourite dive sites. See 1990’s ‘The Invisible Islands’ to see masses of footage from here. Absolutely everything and anything can turn up here. With little movement over these days, the chances of an island visit between dives are obviously good.
DAY 5 – After 8 dives on an extinct volcano, dives 17-20 will be on a live one!! A full day diving the coast of Barren Island, famed for its black reefs, bubbling waters, and chances of large pelagics. The activity of the island itself will dictate whether an island visit is possible here.
DAY 6 - A cruise through the early hours will bring you to Invisible Bank and Flat Rock for the day. An enormous stretch of submerged mountain that just, and only just, breaks the surface 64 km east of the closest land fall.
DAY 7 - After 4 days of extreme diving, things will hopefully wind down a little today with dives around The Sisters and Passage Island.
DAY 8 - High energy start to the day on Fish Rock, submerged just to the north of Passage Island. This will be followed by a gentle finish on North Cinque. If time allows there may be a chance to visit the beautiful beach here before heading back in to Port Blair and disembarkation to your hotel.
