Join us for a once-in-a-lifetime trip to the incredible Bikini Atoll!
This is a rare opportunity to dive some of the most famous wrecks in dive history. With three years until disembarkation day, you have plenty of time to earn the required certifications and buff up on your WW2 history! You don't want to pass up on this exciting trip!

Important: Bikini Atoll is not a standard recreational Liveaboard. Divers typically need minimum 45m tech certification, 100 logged dives, and wreck experience.
Pe*******on dives require appropriate overhead training.
Please note this is a technical wreck-diving expedition so additional costs typically apply for park/port fees, fuel surcharge, rental gear, twinsets/stages, nitrox/trimix/ decompression gases, & other rebreather consumables.

UPDATE***** In an abundance of caution we have sent in an air check. This means that we will continue to be down for fills until our air sample is confirmed cleared. Check back in with us on Friday. Thank you for your continued patience.

Earlier this morning there was a fire in our complex. Luckily nobody was injured and Dive & Photo was not directly impacted. Thank you to the fire department your quick response and action. However, due to the smoke, we will be temporarily suspending all tank fills. We will be emptying out the air banks, changing the filters on the compressor, and then refill all the banks. We hope to be back up and running by Tuesday. Our storefront will continue its operations as normal.

Thank you for your patience and understanding.

Take a look at all these new charters for the 2026 year! We have 5 charters starting in July on the Cee Ray dive boat. We would like to highlight our July 18th charter for Women's Diving Day, as this will be a great day for camaraderie and good vibes! All are welcome!

Each charter is a 3-tank trip leaving at 7am and returning at 6pm. Air fills, breakfast, lunch, and snacks are included in price. Equipment is not included, though rentals are available at Dive & Photo.

*Farnsworth is a tentative trip and requires an advanced certification. Cost is $275. May be switched to a standard front side of Catalina trip.
