The most important what's included in the price of a Bahamas liveaboard trip

1. It should almost go without saying; what's usually included in a Bahamas dive liveaboard trip is the diving. What is normally always included in the 'free' diving package for each dive will be a tank with air (Sometimes nitrox is also included for free - but check this on the liveaboard's own page - click the "Read Full Review" for more details). You can also use the filter on the left under "Diving Features" and filter using "Free Nitrox" if this is important to you. Your weight belt is also provided for each dive too, plus a free dive guide and up to 3-4 dives per day. But you'll need to either bring your own dive gear, or rent this onboard. Most Bahamas dive liveaboards offer dive gear rental, where the cost of which can be checked on the page for that Bahamas liveaboard (Click the Check Availability for details), or again using the filter under "Diving" and use the "Gear rental" filter.
2. A meal plan is usually also included on most Bahamas liveaboards, which is similar to an all-inclusive hotel, but in this case you're on a floating Bahamas' hotel in the middle of the Caribbean Sea that surrounds the islands of The Bahamas. Once you've chosen what looks like the perfect dive boat for you, you'll be able to see which ones offer an all-inclusive meal package. But even better, use the filters down the left hand side and filter under "Food & Drinks" and "Full-board option", as this will give you all those Bahamas liveaboards that include meals in the price shown.
3. There are many other things that are also included in the price of your Bahamas liveaboard trip, and the best way to filter this Bahamas Liveaboard Comparison Chart list to your chosen "what's important to you" is to use the "Included" filter on the left and tick each item you would like to be included on your dive rip. The Liveaboard chart will update with each selection you make, to narrow down the list of Bahamas Liveaboards that are perfect for your dive liveaboard trip.

The experience and certification requirements of Bahamas liveaboards

1. Minimum logged dives: The number of logged dives required for a Bahamas liveaboard depends on the chosen trip itinerary and the types of diving on that trip. Dive itineraries vary widely from one Bahamas Liveaboard trip to the next, and this will largely depend on the dive depths and expected currents on the dives. Those dives that have strong currents and include depths of more than 20+ metres will likely have mandatory 50 to 100+ logged dive requirements. But trips where the dives are shallower and up to 20 metres deep, with little to no currents, the number of logged dives will be less than 50. When you select your chosen Bahamas liveaboard, make sure to choose the right itinerary that is suitable for your diver certification level and number of logged dives.
2. Required certifications: The required certification level for Bahamas dive liveaboards ranges from Open Water Diver (or equivalent) to Advanced Open Water (or equivalent). The best way to filter this Bahamas Liveaboard Comparison Chart is to use the filters on the left hand side and choose "Dive Certification Level Required" and select your certification level. Also, bear in mind that many Bahamas liveaboards offer scuba diving courses, where you can improve your diver certification level. For this search use the "Optional Extras (Not included in the price)" to filter for those Bahamas liveaboards that offer scuba diving courses onboard.
3. Proof of certifications: To dive from a Bahamas Liveaboard you will need to prove your certification level before you can dive. So make sure to bring your certification card or have access to the app provided by your scuba diving body. You will also need proof of Nitrox certification if you want to take advantage of nitrox onboard, or deep-dive certification if there are deeper dives on the itinerary you choose.
