Have always wanted to dive Tortola. However with port time being from 6am-2pm I’m unable to find an operator with a fixed tour that would work with those times. Long shot- but any recommendations for an operator that would allow for a privately scheduled scuba excursion in Tortola? I could charter a boat but that would be >$1200. Looking for someone with a small boat who can have flexible dive times.

Thank you all for the insight and advice. Much appreciated. End of the day the excursion operator is declining, saying he’s (understandably) not comfortable with cutting it that closes.

Most certainly am a newby! But see the screen shot of ncl’s website

I was under the impression that all aboard time is 30 minutes prior to departure when in port. On the NCL website it says that passengers must be on the ship 1 hour prior to departure. What is the actual all aboard time on NCL? specifically asking as I’d love to dive in Tortola on my upcoming encore cruise. Dice manager says he can definitely get me back to the ship by 1:30 for a 2PM departure. Worth it? Or too risky?
