Jost Van Dyke is fast becoming known for its scuba diving. The company formerly known as Jost Van Dyke Watersports has grown into Jost Van Dyke SCUBA and BVI Eco-tours, and it offers access to the best sites off Jost Van Dyke. The island is just 11 miles from the world-famous North Drop, part of the Puerto Rican Trench, which contains the second-deepest ocean depth in the world at 33,000 feet. Owner and operator Capt. Colin Aldridge has discovered more than 40 sites that he keeps unmarked (buoys kept 10 feet below the surface); they range from seamounts and pinnacles to offshore caves. These sites have never been commercially dived, and Jost Van Dyke SCUBA and BVI Eco-tours is the only company servicing this exclusive territory. It is also the only company in the BVI to offer open-ocean blue water diving. Six days of two-tank dives plus beachside accommodations start at $995.
