Tiger Beach

Voted to be the best shark dive in the world, Tiger Beach offers up-close encounters with resident tiger sharks, lemon sharks, Caribbean reef sharks and nurse sharks.

Caves 1 & 2

Thick spur and groove coral formations teem with life. Expect to see groupers, jacks, remoras and sharks from neighboring Shark Alley.

Pretender's Wreck

Caribbean reef sharks and stingrays circle the hull of this upside down tugboat on the western side of Shark Alley, along with groupers, jacks, and spadefish.

Plate Reef

Mahogany and yellowtail snappers, goatfish, and French grunts are usually seen among the many varieties of hard coral that have formed here.

Papa Doc Wreck

The ammunition clips of mercenaries en route to Haiti to overthrow Duvalier can occasionally be found amid the coral heads and engine blocks of this 1968 wreck.

Host Hotel Viva Wyndham Fortuna Beach

Teeming with lush foliage, natural wildlife, and palm-tree dotted beaches the stunning Viva Wyndham Fortuna Beach is an all-inclusive 26-acre resort nestled on the south shore of Grand Bahama Island.
