Why take this tour?

Exploring the underwater world of Bermuda is made easy with the use of a Harley diving helmet. Transport to the reef is provided aboard a fully equipped glass-bottom boat, with ladder access to the seawalk. Your guide provides a safety briefing before the interactive activity and points out a variety of fish while you stroll along the seafloor. It’s simpler than snorkeling and scuba diving.
