BVI Aggressor

The BVI Aggressor is a 110 ft (34m) motor yacht which cruises around the best dive sites of the British Virgin Islands, renowned for its plethora of great wreck dives. Throughout the week you will visit several of the regions, mainly the outer islands of Norman, Peter, Salt, Cooper and Virgin Gorda. The itinerary is entirely dependent on the winds and weather.

This steel-hulled British Virgin Islands liveaboard accommodates a maximum of 20 guests in comfort and style. The spacious air conditioned lounge, complete with full entertainment system, and the dedicated dining room are the main social focal points on board. However, you can also relax on the sun deck which comes complete with sun chairs and sun loungers, a hot tub, a music system, shaded wet bar and grill. A further relaxation spot is the covered cocktail deck on the upper deck. There is no shortage of comfortable hang-out spaces on this liveaboard.

There is satellite email and phone available for guest use where necessary although no internet browsing facility. You can enjoy the assortment of music, games and movies on board, as well as shore excursions to cays and beaches. All cabins have a TV with movies selection, some cabins have private balconies and there is even a morning beverage service: coffee delivered to your cabin door!

Diving facilities include nitrox, a charging station and a large camera table with low pressure hoses for your camera and video equipment, 2 hot fresh water showers on the dive deck, and individual guest storage spaces. All dives are made from 2 large custom-built 25 ft. dive tenders, each outfitted with a 300 HP Suzuki motor, custom tank racks and ladders for easy exit.

Meals are buffet style except for dinner which, like all Aggressor liveaboards, features waiter service and complimentary local beer and wine. Occasionally meals may be served al fresco on the sundeck. As with all Aggressors, you are free to dine in an on-shore location of your own choice on the final evening. You can expect American-style food, as well as local dishes. Keeping you well-fed and entertained, both above and below the water, the BVI Aggressor delivers a very comfortable, high quality Caribbean liveaboard adventure.
