Your First Liveaboard
DIVER Canada|Spring 2023
One of my favourite experiences is when I am on one of our liveaboard adventures and there are first-time liveaboard guests.

Your First Liveaboard

Getting to spend a week or more with them and hearing their reasons for finally deciding to try a liveaboard, as well as any concerns that may have kept them from previously coming aboard, gives me so much insight into how to make our adventures more available to the diving community.

The way to go!

The most common comment at the end of the liveaboard adventure from our first-time guests is, “This is the way to go scuba diving!” While I may be a little biased in agreeing, it does take the enjoyment of exploring our underwater world up several notches. Setting up your gear on arrival and never having to repeat is something that should be at the top of everyone’s list. A close second is always being on top of (or just a short tender ride from) the dive site. Maximizing the time indulging your passion for scuba diving also has added benefits.
