Exuma

Exuma is a district and island chain in The Bahamas known for its clear turquoise waters and accessible shore and boat dives. While Exuma itself is more renowned for pristine beaches, snorkeling, and calm, shallow lagoons, nearby dive centers based on or near the Exuma Cays offer wall and reef dives, sea-life, and swim-throughs. The main draw for divers visiting the area is access to numerous shallow reefs, seagrass beds, and occasional pelagic activity in deeper sites a short boat ride away. Water is typically warm year-round, with visibility often good, and conditions can vary with wind and seas. Expect a relaxed, coves-and-cays diving experience with a focus on reef formations and abundant marine life in protected areas.
