Dominica Dive Resort – Portsmouth

Dive Centre

Run by Virginie and Rémi Granger,  Cabrits Dive is a super friendly PADI 5 Star Dive Centre with a great reputation for running a very sleek operation.   You are met with a smile and treated like an old friend from the offset.  The centre is very well organised with plenty of space for all your kit, teaching areas and even plenty of equipment for sale, should you need to replace anything. 

Most dive sites are within a short and scenic boat ride within the Cabrits National Park and the historic Prince Rupert Bay.  The centre has two custom built dive boats offering daily diving.

Choose from morning or afternoon departures (1 or 2 tank dives).  Night dives and guided shore dives are also available.  Nitrox is available at an extra charge.

Après Dive

Set on Prince Rupert Bay, Portsmouth is Dominica’s second largest town.  Right on the doorstep is the amazing Cabrits National Park –  1300 acres of tropical forest, wetlands, coral reefs, wildlife treasures and hiking trails. Take a lazy boat ride along the stunning Indian River with its beautiful trees and enjoy a bit of bird spotting as you go.  The rum tasting station that greets you at the end of your boat ride is a favourite part of the day.

Numerous day trips and sightseeing tours can be arranged on dry days or to complement your scuba diving.
