In this day and age, how many of us get the opportunity to set sail in the vast open ocean to explore its enigmatic nature and marine life? Since the dawn of time, humans have an intrinsic nature and curiosity for exploration – it satisfies our need for discovery and learning about our place in nature. Perhaps one of the best ways to satisfy this need for exploration and adventure, is by setting sail on a liveaboard diving cruise. There are many other benefits of course, which we will be discussing in this article.
Meet like-minded people
One of the benefits of a liveaboard diving trip is meeting others who share the same genuine passion for diving and exploration as you do! Chances are you’ll meet people who have dived in places you’ve never been to, and you can exchange stories and tips for future diving trips.
All your gear ready to go
The liveaboard will serve as a mobile base for you to use when exploring the dive sites. Having your equipment all in one place makes it a more seamless diving experience.
More frequent dives
For diving enthusiasts, a liveaboard trip offers more frequent dives per day than the average land-based diving center. The average frequency of a liveaboard is 4 to 5 dives in one day. Not only does it offer extended time to explore the dive sites, it’s also a more economical option when compared with shore-based dive centers.
Venture into remote diving sites
Perhaps the biggest advantage of a liveaboard is the ability to access even the most remote diving sites. Certain dive sites are so remote that there are no diving centers, resorts or hotels for you to stay in during the trip. So, the only viable way to explore them is by liveaboard. The vessel will serve as your base as you explore the underwater world beneath the waves.
Have you ever been on a liveaboard diving trip? Traveling to remote locations and seeing places you’ve never seen is arguably one of the most rewarding and gratifying experiences. When you’re ready, sail with us at Calico Jack Charters.
