Caribbean Fun Travel was the only independent tour operator – and the only dive holiday specialist – from the UK to attend the exhibition.

The CHTA President and the Prime Minister of the Bahamas both welcomed Caribbean Fun Travel by name, as a tour operator specialising in holidays for divers, who they were both keen to welcome to the Caribbean. Caribbean Fun Travel will soon offer holidays to St. Lucia, Barbados, the Bahamas and Antigua.

St. Kitts, Turks and Caicos and Tobago will be added when time allows.

Douglas Durrant said “We have a lot of repeat customers and they have pushed us to add new destinations. Over the years we have introduced many UK divers to some “off the beaten track” destinations. Now we will add some familiar, but equally exciting, destinations for divers and snorkellers to enjoy. The exhibition was an excellent way to gather information and enable us to offer customers the best possible choice. As soon as the resort/hotel inspections are finished, we’ll add these wonderful islands to our website www.caribbeanfuntravel.co.uk.
