Odyssey Expeditions
Private
Odyssey Expeditions runs residential marine-biology, sailing and scuba-diving voyages for teens and young adults ages 13–22, based out of Tarpon Springs and sailing the Caribbean. Campers live aboard 50-foot catamarans on 14- or 21-day trips, running the vessel under licensed captains while studying marine biology with working scientists — conducting reef surveys and earning PADI Open Water/Advanced certifications (some programs carry college credit). It is an immersive, travel-based overnight program rather than a local day camp.

★★★★★GLOBOT LLCAs a former student and staff, I can wholeheartedly recommend Odyssey expeditions. It really is an experience like no other with fantastic diving spots, beautiful boats and an excellent hands on marine biology learning experience. The owners are friendly and have extensive knowledge and experience with the Caribbean, sailing and scuba diving. I would strongly recommend signing up for a voyage, as it changed my life! So much fun!
★★★★★Louisa ParavecchioOdyssey expeditions is the best summer camp I’ve ever been to. The staff is amazing, the scenery is absolutely breathtaking, and the whole experience of living on a boat and sailing around St Lucia, St Vincent and the Grenadines, and Granada was wonderful. I highly recommend this camp to anyone who likes water, fish, coral, swimming, scuba diving, sailing and nature.
★★★★★Casey LeeMy odyssey expedition voyage was an incredible formative experience. The staff were excellent and supportive, Jason and Jon led us along every step to earning our multiple dive certifications. The food was superb, and preparing all the meals ourselves was a great learning opportunity. Lastly, my fellow shipmates were all outgoing and friendly, and I made some valuable lifelong friends.
★★★★★tobias martinezI had an amazing voyage, I’m just ending it now in july 2024. Staff were amazing, very professional and very experienced. The food was surprisingly good for a boat, and the whole experience was incredible. Jason is an amazing captain, I would strongly recommend anyone looking for a Caribbean live aboard for themselves or their child to look closely at odyssey.
★★★★★aleksa caminoI had so much fun on Odyssey's Advanced Adventure! This is definitely a once in a lifetime experience and I will remember it for the rest of my life. The company I had on my boat were all so sweet and fun! I definitely 100% recommend to go or send your kids :) I have been recommending Odyssey to so many friends and family members since I got back.
