Explorer Ventures Liveaboard Fleet Releases 2017 DEMA Group Travel Specials

Explorer Ventures Liveaboard Fleet has released their 2017 DEMA Group Travel Specials! This is the most advantageous time of year for dive centres and groups to fill their travel calendar. You’ll find specials for as few as six guests, or increase profit with a full boat charter. Every one of Explorer Ventures’ destinations features spectacular diving, but it’s the service from your first contact with the office through the last moments of an unforgettable adventure that sets them apart.
Maldives, Galapagos, Saba/St. Kitts, Turks & Caicos and Indonesia (NEW!) all feature great everyday terms (5 paid + 1 free or 10 paid + 2 free), but the DEMA Specials make many of these trips an even more outstanding value.
