CONCEPTION ISLAND WALL FACTS
* We perform CONCEPTION ISLAND WALL DIVING usually once a week, and more often, subject to demand.
* Our 28 - 36' sized boats travel there within some 90 minutes, the 65' main dive cruiser needs not quite 3 hours travel time, from the marina, each one way.
* In a day's time, usually two wall dives - or one plus another dive (wreck or other) are being combined, with shoretime provided in-between (at a beautiful, leeside bay and beach).
* We also frequent Conception Island (sometimes in combination with nearby Rum Cay) during 1-2 overnight dive cruises ... then combining the wall dive with various Southhampton Reef dives, and the wreck (certain extra charges for overnight cruises may apply, subject to type of program booked with our Stella Maris Resort Club).
* No special experience levels are required for diving any of these sites, minimum experience/ability standards to some of these dives.
* Day Trip Charges: If diving by "package", the first CONCEPTION ISLAND trip is provided without any surcharge. If diving by regular day charges, and after the first trip per "package", $20.-- extra per diver apply.
* Boating/Diving frequency - this island: Usually, some three to twelve leasure boats, mostly sailing, may be at anchor in the Island's main leeside bay. Diving there is mostly performed by our activities - but occasionally, cruising dive boats - private and commercial - may stop by for a dive, or a few days, having knowledge of the qualities of the Wall and having set buoys for damage-free anchoring.
* Current - usually mildly south-east to north-west - suggesting occasional drift-diving.
CONCEPTION ISLAND WALL DIVING will - provided weather and underwater conditions are at least 'fair' - never disappoint a diver, no matter how world-travelled!
