Win a Dive Trip to Montserrat

The Montserrat Tourist Board is partnering with Scuba Dive Magazine to offer one lucky winner an unforgettable underwater adventure. Now through May 31, 2009, visitor to http://www.scubadiving.com/article/montserrat_sweepstakes can enter for a chance to win a five-day/four-night dive trip that includes accommodations at Tropical Mansion Suites, two full days of diving to explore some of the 30 dive site, one day of sightseeing with a stop at the Montserrat Volcano Observatory and car rental for three days.

A 15-minute flight from Antigua is the Emerald Isle of the Caribbean, Montserrat. Famous for its Soufriere Hills Volcano, Montserrat offers the ideal setting for a unique vacation. The active-minded can hike one of the nine world class nature trails, explore one of the 30 dive sites, or laze on one of the secluded beaches free of harassment. A close-up view of the volcano is also a must – whether from Jack Boy Hill or the Montserrat Volcano Observatory.

World class events such as St. Patrick’s Week (a testament to the island’s Irish connections) in mid-March, Calabash Festival in July, Open Fishing Tournament in October and Festival (Carnival) in December are also main draws for visitors. Montserrat also boasts a number of luxury villas, intimate guesthouses, apartments and hotels that are quite affordable. There are no fast food chains, so meals are taken mainly in warm, family run restaurants, ranging from the casual to elegant. A drink in one of the many free pouring bars and rum shops, with their “cheers” like atmosphere, is also a must.
