Did you know that May 23rd is World Turtle Day? The day was created to raise awareness of turtles and tortoises and the challenges they face.
Rasta Mike, divemaster and one man comedy show for Negril Scuba Center, swims with a sea turtle while scuba diving in Negril Jamaica.
This was towards the end of our 2nd tank dive and just before we were about to surface. On this dive Mikey gets up and close to what appears to be a juvenile Hawksbill Sea Turtle and has a bit of fun with a short chase the shows just how quick a sea turtle can be when a wild looking rasta diver tries to touch it.

I had the opportunity to enjoy a wonderful diving vacation with Negril Scuba Center. It was a wonderful day spent diving the beautiful waters of the Caribbean Sea which are just jam packed with all sorts of wonderful and brilliant sea life.
We took a short boat ride out to the reef which is located very close to the wonderful Negril Beach where the scuba dive shop is situated and within about 10 minutes time we had our scuba gear fitted on and we were in the water. The waters around Negril offer excellent visibility in comparison to some other places I have been diving. Visibility was probably close to 100 feet I would guess. We could see the bottom clearly from the boat and it was over 60 feet.
Here are some photos of my dive with Negril Scuba Center.

Here are a few pics of the underwater sealife we find here in Negril Jamaica. The local waters of Negril are rich in a wide number of sea creatures including crabs, lobsters and other crustaceans as well as other animals such as sea turtles, snake and jellyfish to name just a few.
You never really know what you’ll see while diving in Jamaica but you can rest assured that you will see something. These pics were taken on scuba dives in Negril by guests who enjoyed their dive vacations with Negril Scuba.

Ready for the best vacation of your life in Negril Jamaica? A scuba dive trip where you actually swim with wild dolphins is the perfect way to enjoy your time in Negril and an excellent underwater adventure for any level of scuba diver.
The Caribbean waters are abundant and teaming with sealife and we enjoy them all but our closest and best friends are the many Bottlenose Dolphin that we find swimming alongside the boats as we travel or those that will even swim right up to you as you dive with the best dive shop in Negril Jamaica.
These photos show our guests enjoying a swim with dolphins in Negril Jamaica and a truly unique vacation experience that you will not find in many places in the world. Of course we cannot guarantee you’ll get this close to wild dolphins but if you want to take a chance and see if they like you enough then contact us for details on diving with Dolphins in Negril.
