Humpback Whale Safari in the Dominican Republic with the ultimate in Liveaboards

Pro Dive MexicoPro Dive International, one of the Caribbean’s most established PADI 5 Star Dive Resorts and recognized Career Development Centers have announced their partnership with Aggressor Fleet – The Ultimate in Liveaboards, as one of the new top highlights of the recent inauguration of Pro Dive´s first dive center in the Dominican Republic.

Founded in 1984, the Aggressor Fleet set its goal of becoming the largest and most successful fleet of Liveaboard dive yachts in the world. Today, it takes guests to more than 30 breathtaking dive destinations in the world, like the beautiful Turks and Caicos Aggressor II, that offers an exciting itinerary to the Dominican Republic to snorkel with Humpback Whales at the Silver Bank in the north of the country, between January and April.

The Silver Bank, also known as the “Sanctuary for the Marine Mammals of the Dominican Republic”, provides a safe and protected wintering shelter for the entire North Atlantic Humpback Whale population, where they gather in thousands to court, mate, calve, and rear their young until they are strong enough to return to the North Eastern U.S. coast.

“Aggressor Fleet stands for innovation, personalized service, professional staff, and safety, promising a perfect match for our collaboration,” says Markus Fleischmann, CEO & Founder of Pro Dive International – Mexico & Dominican Republic. “We are thrilled to now be able to boost our big fish safaris with this once-in-a-life-time experience, and offer the humpbacks combined with a dive & relax extension package at our new dive center location at the Occidental Grand Punta Cana, to round up this exciting snorkeling adventure by discovering the diving highlights of the Dominican Republic, including Bayahibe, Saona & Catalina islands, and relax at one of the finest white sandy beaches.”

Santa Divers take the Plunge for Charity

Ho Ho Ho! Vobster Quay’s recording-breaking charity Santa diving event returns on Sunday 15th December 2024 for another round of festive fundraising frivolities. Run in aid of the Royal National Lifeboat Institution (RNLI) and Help For Heroes, this ever-popular annual fundraising event aims to raise sack-loads of cash for these two very deserving charities.

Divers of all levels are invited to grab their Santa outfits – and as much festive cheer as they can muster – and head down to Vobster Quay near Mells, Somerset for a mass sponsored Santa dive in aid of charity. In previous years, the event has attracted divers from the far corners of the UK to join in the festive merriment for a final festive dive before the Christmas and New Year break. Back in 2015, the event smashed the world record for the most Santa divers with 188 divers taking to the waters donning their festive finery – a record that remains unbeaten to this day!

Vobster Santas isn’t just about setting records – it’s also about raising some serious cash for charity. Vobster Quay encourages all divers to get into the spirit of the season to raise much-needed funds for two very deserving charities – the Royal National Lifeboat Institution (RNLI) and Help For Heroes.

Through individual sponsorship and online donations, divers can invite their friends, family and work colleagues to sponsor them to plunge into the balmy waters of Vobster Quay dressed in full festive finery. Since the very first Santa dive in 2007, the event has raised over £52,000 for charity. “It’s been over 17 years since the very first charity Santa dive took place at Vobster Quay and every year the event just keeps getting bigger and better” enthused Vobster Quay owner, Amy Stanton.

“Vobster Santas is a great way for divers to say a massive thank you to the both the RNLI and Help For Heroes – two very deserving charities close to our hearts. We’re immensely proud of all that Vobster Santas has achieved and hope that even more divers will join this year’s event on Sunday 15th December. I’m confident that we can make Vobster Santas 2024 the biggest yet!”.
