Grand Bahama Island's reputation as a diver's paradise has been growing ever since the earliest episodes of "Sea Hunt" were filmed here. Elaborate coral gardens, playful dolphins, and beckoning blue holes-these are images of the "other" Grand Bahama Island, ones that live beneath a shimmering blue surface that sprawls outwards from the beaches.
Grand Bahama Island is of course also famous for its "blue holes"-spectacular azure portals in the reefs through which you can descend, surrounded by reef wall on all sides. Part of the reason for the dense and unique reef structure is the massive limestone base on which The Islands Of The Bahamas rest, a phenomenon that also accounts for what is perhaps Grand Bahama Island's most extraordinary submarine feature: the second largest underwater cave system in the world. Located in the Lucayan National Park, the caves are still being explored, and there are numerous special dive programs that can take you into them (provided you are cave certified). You must be certified to dive in The Islands of The Bahamas and there are several dive operators in Grand Bahama Island that offer dive certification. Kids over age 12 can get certified and dive under adult supervision.
