The island of Eleuthera in the Bahamas offers an unparalleled aquatic world for diving and study. Based at the Island School, the thriving reef system of this island is your classroom. This accredited program focuses on the intricate ways an entire reef system comes together to form a beautiful yet fragile environment.
Participants engage in comprehensive preparation before dives, field studies and lab work.
Each day opens a new world of discovery. Analyze feeding habits, life cycles, symbiotic relationships and ecological concerns of a coral reef system. Afternoons and evenings include lab experiments, field excursions and discussion lectures on biodiversity. We also explore wondrous reefs at night to uncover a vital portion of the marine world, its nocturnal metamorphosis. The Island School boasts dive boats, dorm-style facilities, a full kitchen, kayaks, beach cruiser bikes and sand bars to play on at high tide.
