A major Caribbean dive shop is coming to Dominica.

The Buddy Dive Resort in Bonaire has launched a partnership with the Fort Young Hotel in Dominica, bringing Bonaire’s famous dive experience to the Nature Island.

Buddy Dive on Dominica has now set sail on its first voyage, marking the launch of a new complete dive experience in the Caribbean.

Buddy Dive on Dominica represents a new partnership between operator Buddy Dive Resort and the Fort Young Hotel, which is known as Dominica’s premium dive hotel due to its location and onsite facilities.

The new dive facilities – set along a private jetty just 15 minutes away from a variety of world-famous dive spots – feature a full stocked dive retail shop, teaching facilities, rental gear room, lockers, rinse tanks, and showers.

Buddy Dive on Dominica is also offering whale watching trips, as Dominica is home and host to two thirds of all known whale species either resident or visiting the waters around the island each year.
