Equator Diving back from The Bahamas

Published

on

Equator Diving have just returned from a wonderful liveaboard trip to the Bahamas to the Bimini Islands and Tiger Beach.

The Bahamas is a place famous for its close up shark encounters and nowhere are these encounters more awe inspiring than at Tiger Beach and the Bimini Islands. The trip on Bahamas Master Liveaboard would take us to both of these destinations. Tiger Sharks can be found at Tiger Beach for most of the year but Great Hammerheads only appear in the Bahamas during the winter months with the most reliable encounters taking place January through March. During our trip they encountered a total of 6 shark species, Tiger Sharks, Great Hammerheads, Bull Sharks, Lemon Sharks, Nurse Sharks and Caribbean Reef Sharks.The Bahamas trip report and photos are now live on their website – you can see them by clicking here.

Equator Diving still have a few spaces left on their 2020 Bahamas liveaboard trips to the Bimini Islands and Tiger Beach. The 2020 trip dates are specifically timed to coincide with Great Hammerhead season and are 26 Jan-5 Feb 2020 and 28 Feb-9 March 2020. The liveaboard price is £3,195/person.

Over the next 12 months, specialist scuba holiday company Dive Worldwide will be supporting Bite-Back Shark & Marine Conservation with donations collected from client bookings to any one of its stunning dive destinations around the world. The independently-owned operator expects to raise £3000 for the UK charity.

Manager at Dive Worldwide, Phil North, said: “We’re especially excited to work with Bite-Back and support its intelligent, creative and results-driven campaigns to end the UK trade in shark products and prompt a change in attitudes to the ocean’s most maligned inhabitant.”

Bite-Back is running campaigns to hold the media to account on the way it reports shark news along with a brand new nationwide education programme. Last year the charity was credited for spearheading a UK ban on the import and export of shark fins.

Campaign director at Bite-Back, Graham Buckingham, said: “We’re enormously grateful to Dive Worldwide for choosing to support Bite-Back. The company’s commitment to conservation helps set it apart from other tour operators and we’re certain its clients admire and respect that policy. For us, the affiliation is huge and helps us look to the future with confidence we can deliver against key conservation programmes.”

To launch the fundraising initiative, Phil North presented Graham Buckingham with a cheque for £1,000.
