Dixie Divers

Abaco, Bahamas

The team at Dixie Divers are the kind of people you want to spend a week with. They've been a fixture in Abaco for years, and that local knowledge truly shines. We love how they run their operation, particularly their focus on PADI IDC courses – they’re serious about making great instructors. If you’re thinking about taking your diving to a professional level, or just want a really solid, no-nonsense dive operator for your Abaco trip, Dixie is our pick. They navigate the local sites with ease, knowing just when and where to drop you for the best chances of seeing the resident reef sharks or the elusive Nassau groupers. Their boats are always well-maintained, and the pre-dive briefings are thorough without being dull. Plus, they’re just genuinely good company, making the surface intervals as enjoyable as the dives. We'd suggest booking your dives for early morning, especially if you want to avoid any potential afternoon chop.
