Greetings all!

Just booked a week in the BVI on a Moorings 37 May 25-June 1, 2015. Planning on the following itinerary (give or take):

Monday - Sleep aboard at Moorings
Tuesday - Cooper
Wednesday - North Sound
Thursday - Friday - Anagada
Saturday - Jost (Great Harbor)
Sunday - Return to base, sleep aboard
Monday - End of trip

We would like to fit in some SCUBA Diving on two of the days. From memory, the easiest places to do so are Cooper, BEYC and sometimes Great Harbor, Jost, although that place seems to be closed every time we are there.

Any insight into best companies who can come pick us up and how to get in touch with them would be appreciated.

DIF is running high!

I believe nearly all the companies will come get you. We have used Dive BVI and Sail Caribbean divers. You can call or email them.

Its also really easy to dive right from the boat. We usually do that and add one rendezvous dive per trip.

We used DiveBVI. And they are excellent. We emailed and did not get a response quickly. ( it was Christmas time) So I Facebook messaged and called. They were then very responsive. Highly recommend. We met them at Scrub Island and did a rendezvous dive from Cooper.

We are Blue Water Diver fans. They also do rendezvous dives. Norman or Peter would be fine for a pic up as well. Cooper is out of the way for Road Town OPs. Be aware of sea conditions a 37' mono at Cooper could be very uncomfortable, roly poly.

Swells = cooper rolling. Sad but true.

We have used blue water and sunchaser. Both were excellent.
