Scuba Dive on your day on St Maarten

To come to us from the cruise ship pier and scuba dive from a cruise, is quite easy: there are always plenty of the taxicabs at your pier (they will be waiting) to drive you to Kim Sha Beach (local name for “our” beach), where the shop and the boat are located.

We can prearrange transport from your cruise ship which is U$16 return trip per person, minimum of 2 people. Remember to ask for transportation when booking your dives. The ride takes between 15 and 20 minutes, traffic dependent. 

We are within walking distance from many great restaurants on the island and are always happy to recommend one to your taste, should you decide to enjoy the local cuisine, usually you have plenty of time to enjoy the island before getting back to the ship.

Kim Sha beach has a lot to offer to non-divers as well ( beach bars, lounges, restaurants, and watersports) it is a beach with calm waters for you to bring your party along to hang out and enjoy the beach for a few hours while you are diving.

Typically we run two tank dives in the morning and a single or another two tank dive in the early afternoon. Let us know your ship port time and we’ll do our best to cater to your schedule.

How to reserve my dives, to scuba dive from a cruise
