Sub Experience

Join the adventure-seeking aquanauts for an underwater experience. The SUB is like an underwater motorbike with a big bubble filled with a constant flow of air. You'll be given a lesson on how to use the SUB and some basic safety guidelines. Following an orientation, the SUB guides will take you on a tour of a beautiful shallow reef where they'll feed the fish for you and stop along the way to point out marine life. Once you arrive to the site, you'll dip into your SUB bubble and follow your guide. The trips are done in shifts of approximately 10 or 11 people at a time and you are welcome to enjoy a snorkel experience between shifts. It's easy and fun; you don't need prior Scuba experience. Note: Participants must be at least 12 years of age, 5' or taller and in good health. Wet suits and videos of your SUB adventure will be available at an additional cost. They will be shown in the shop following your return to the dock. Guests must sign a waiver release form. The approximate SUB experience is 30-45 minutes. Guests do not need to be strong swimmers. If time permits, guests can snorkel between shipts, it is optional and complimentary. Snorkel gear is included.

awesome
Hubby and I did this excursion and would doit again in a minute. We are looking to do it again on our next cruise. There were so many fish that one of the pictures they took of me, you can barely see me through all the fish. It was easy on and off the scooter. I didn't even get my hair wet. The guides were great. We had 2 groups of 8 and on your wait time you had a great place to snorkel. All kinds of fish and most were very large. Water was clear and easy to see everything. What a blast.

Great time!
We took a NCL cruise in February 2012 and it was windy and cold. I have to admit the weather nearly made the boat ride to the drop site unbearable, but the Crew were great at finding an area that was better protected from the wind. My husband and I have done Snuba in St. Lucia and loved it and were bummed that this is not offered at this location, but this experience was great and definitely filled the "wow" need. I wish it wasn't as windy or cold that weekend, but I would definitely do it again. The Crew was fabulous with us!

Mini Sub - WOW!
We went on the Mini Sub experience in Nassau January 27, 2012 and it was the most amazing experience. Highly recommend this excursion for those who love snorkeling at a whole new level!

Excellent
I decided to write this review because there isn't to many written about this. The sub experience is for the person who wants to dive into the water but is not ready for the actually dive equipment. I was very nervous at first, however once I was in the water it was the easiest thing to do. I experienced so many different fish that would come right up to the sub. The only thing is the noise. You hear the air tank that bubbles fresh air into the bubble part. It's very safe and wonderful. Even the video is cheap.
