BVI Wreck Week 2026: Dive History in the British Virgin Islands Aboard Cuan Law

Every June, divers from around the world gather in the British Virgin Islands to celebrate one of the Caribbean’s most exciting diving events: BVI Wreck Week.

In 2026, the event runs June 21–27, bringing together dive enthusiasts, conservation organizations, and local businesses for a week of exploration, marine education, and community events centered around the islands’ remarkable underwater heritage.

One of the best ways to experience it is aboard Cuan Law, combining legendary wreck diving with sailing through the spectacular islands of the BVI.

What Is BVI Wreck Week?

BVI Wreck Week is a celebration of the region’s shipwrecks, reefs, and marine conservation efforts. The week features guided dives, educational talks, community gatherings, and special events designed to showcase the underwater beauty of the islands while promoting ocean stewardship.

Throughout the week divers can:

• Explore historic shipwrecks and artificial reefs
• Participate in marine conservation initiatives
• Attend educational talks and community events
• Experience BVI culture with local food, music, and beach gatherings

The event highlights both the history beneath the sea and the responsibility of protecting Caribbean waters.

Highlights of Wreck Week Aboard Cuan Law

Guests sailing aboard Cuan Law during Wreck Week enjoy a unique combination of live-aboard diving and island exploration.

The week includes:

• Multiple guided wreck dives at some of the Caribbean’s most famous sites
• Opportunities to participate in marine conservation efforts
• Social events and fundraisers supporting ocean protection
• Sailing between islands and dive locations throughout the BVI

Because Cuan Law is a sailing live-aboard, divers wake up each day surrounded by new islands, reefs, and dive sites.

Dive Sites and Community Events

The week begins with dives at popular sites such as Painted Walls and Blonde Rock, followed by community activities including beach cleanups and conservation events.

Divers also connect with organizations dedicated to protecting the marine environment of the British Virgin Islands, helping support sustainability initiatives that keep these waters thriving.

After a day of diving, guests can relax on deck or enjoy island gatherings before sailing onward to new dive locations.

The Legendary RMS Rhone

No wreck-diving trip to the British Virgin Islands would be complete without diving the RMS Rhone Marine Park.

The wreck of the RMS Rhone, sunk during a hurricane in 1867, is considered one of the most iconic wreck dives in the Caribbean. Divers explore massive boilers, swim through sections of the hull, and encounter marine life that now thrives on the historic structure.

Clear water and abundant coral growth make the site ideal for both exploration and underwater photography.
