Join Sea Dog Divers for a jam packed week of diving, fun, activities and relaxation while staying in a shore side paradise at the exclusive Cooper Island Beach Club.  We have again reserved this entire little resort (the only one on the island) for our friends and guests.  Imagine a place with your own private stretch of beach, shore diving & snorkeling, great food and privacy, all at your doorstep.  The dive boat will pick you up each day just a few steps from your front door. The beach is just a few steps away and the excellent restaurant & bar are a very short walk.  You get the idea - it doesn't get any better than this...........your own personal paradise!!

Prepare yourself for a week of incredible experiences while diving an unbelievable variety of dive sites.  You won't just be diving off one island, but rather a whole chain of islands referred to as "nature's little secrets" by those of us who know them.  You will also experience an amazing level of service from our dive and water sports host, Sail Caribbean Divers.  With their seasoned staff and fleet of custom Newton dive boats ranging in size from 26 to 46 feet, this premier dive operator will show us the best of BVI diving at sites including the famous R.M.S Rhone, the Indians, wreck alley, etc.

Looking for the ideal place to bring a non-diver, snorkeler, beach lover, or sun-worshipper?  You just found it!!  No club scene, no malls, just palm trees, sandy beach, Caribbean sun, water toys, and a cold drink..........yah mon, just the recipe for someone who needs to get away to a totally stress free zone!  Guests & snorkelers are always welcome on the dive boat too!  There is something for everyone here.  So come join us to meet some new friends and rendezvous with old friends in the beautiful BVI with Sea Dog Divers.

Cooper Island Beach Club is a small resort on Manchioneel Bay on the north west corner of Cooper Island. Cooper Island is approximately one and a half miles long by a half mile wide, and lies about five miles south of Tortola, the largest island in the British Virgin Islands, which are sixty miles east of Puerto Rico. Apart from the Beach Club and its staff, there is one local family, five holiday houses and lots of goats on the island. Manchioneel Bay is a good overnight anchorage, and the Beach Club is well known by many of the visiting yachts who are attracted each year to the natural beauty and friendliness of these Caribbean islands. Originally a private house, the Beach Club was renovated and expanded in 1980, and has now been operated continuously by us for over twenty-three years. Our beach front restaurant and bar offers one of the best sunset views in the islands, and we have built a reputation for serving quality meals in an informal setting, at a reasonable price.

Our diving host is Sail Caribbean Divers, a PADI Gold Palm Resort operating in the BVI and offering a full range of diving instruction. When it is dive time, step aboard a fleet of custom dive boats built by Newton Boats. They are equipped with a camera table, fresh water showers, head and a spacious dive platform. World class dive sites offer some of the most popular wreck diving in the Caribbean. Explore dramatic walls, caves, and rock pinnacles. You will see giant sea fans, abundant soft corals, turtles, schools of barracuda, stingrays and numerous species of shark.
