Looking for a truly unique liveaboard diving adventure that far surpasses "eat-sleep-dive" fleet boats and predictable McDiving holidays? Billed as the world's largest trimaran designed and built for scuba diving and sailing, the eco-friendly 105-ft Cuan Law is a uniquely beautiful and seaworthy vessel. Thanks to her huge 44-ft beam, Cuan Law pampers guests with exceptional onboard comfort and a smooth, steady ride unmatched by other liveaboards. Add the best dive boat crew anywhere, gourmet cuisine and the most pristine coral reefs in the Caribbean, and you've got everything you could possibly want for the ultimate liveaboard scuba diving adventure.
:: EXPLORE BVI - EXPLORE PRISTINE REEFS ::
The gin clear waters of the British Virgin Islands boast many of the best dive sites in the Caribbean thanks in no small part to the conservation efforts of Cuan Law owners Duncan and Annie Muirhead. The astonishing marine species abundance and diversity is enhanced by spectacular wreck dives including the renowned HMS Rhone, one of many signature BVI dive sites. Best of all, Cuan Law gets you there ahead of the day charter dive boats so you can avoid the crowds.
:: ONBOARD CUAN LAW ::
Cuan Law is big and that translates into a huge lounge and 10 spacious staterooms that pamper you with independently controlled air-conditioning units and private ensuite facilities. When you're not diving, you'll probably be under the rear deck canopy and under the influence of Cuan Law's renowned chef whose inspired culinary creations will remind you several times a day why you wisely decided to leave your diet at home. Between meals and dives, the upper deck hammocks compete for your attention with an abundance of toys including a couple of hobie cats, sea kayaks and two RIB dive tenders that are powerful enough to double as ski boats.

From 11-day spectaculars to the first, and still best, liveaboard-based IDC, owners Annie and Duncan Muirhead have designed special expeditions in addition to the weekly cruises that have earned Cuan Law many accolades from discerning dive travelers and dive travel experts worldwide.
