Fun Stuff to make you smile
At Pro Divers St Kitts, we try to maximize diver comfort and safety.
We also believe Scuba Diving should be lots of fun!
Diving with Pro Divers St. Kitts isn’t just about great reefs and calm mornings on the water — it’s about having fun along the way. From lionfish hunting to spotting our wandering underwater gnomes, and even sharing a laugh with our long‑time mascot, “Fritzy the Diving Chicken,” we like to keep things relaxed, memorable, and a little bit quirky. Here are a few of the fun traditions and surprises you might encounter when you dive with us.
Lionfish hunting
Lionfish are an invasive species here.
Guests may shoot Lionfish from our boat providing no other diver on the day objects.
You need to bring your own Pole Spear (Spearguns not allowed).
Please respect the REEF and your fellow divers.
If you are bringing Lionfish back to the boat, they must be in a hard-sided, enclosed container such as a “ZooKeeper” or something similar.
Gnomes of St Kitts
Early in 2018, we released a family of Gnomes onto the Reefs in St Kitts.
Prior studies by research divers and Gnome experts did show that this would be an ideal habitat for them.
However, on returning to the Reefs, we found this not to be the case. The Gnomes had wandered off.
After a successful, extensive search of our reefs, we located our first Gnome, “Fionne,” and he has now been safely relocated onto Harbour Reef.
The second Gnome, “Froggie,” was discovered on “Camps Reef.”
The search continues for the last missing gnome……. If you are Scuba Diving in St Kitts, remember to look for them!
Our Diving Chicken
For many years, we enjoyed the company of a diving Chicken “Fritzy”.
Every dive school should have one of these.
Her job is to make noise on the boat and bring a smile to everybody’s face.
Also likes to get in on every photo.
She was our mascot on the boat and often came underwater with us.
During our Covid19 shutdown, “Fritzy” retired and found new places.
She was last seen by Terry, enjoying life, on the Bangkok Metro!
Pro Divers St. Kitts adds a lighthearted touch to every dive day, from responsible lionfish hunting to the ongoing search for our wandering underwater gnomes and the long‑loved antics of Fritzy, our retired diving chicken. These traditions reflect our belief that diving should be safe, relaxed, and genuinely fun. Whether you’re exploring the reefs, spotting a gnome, or simply enjoying the atmosphere on the boat, we aim to make every dive memorable and full of character.
