They say that once you own a Dive Shop, the first thing you do is STOP Diving!! Not true with N2 The Blue. I'm Derrick Hill and my wife and I started N2 The Blue 5 years ago because we thought people should have the option to dive with smaller, more personal groups. 

I've been diving since I was 12 years old.  I finished my Divemaster at University, and achieved my instructor certification three years later. I started working on a dive boat in Ft. Lauderdale while waiting on the job that would sweep me off to the islands. Then, I went to work on Grand Turk in the Turks and Caicos Islands for a couple of years before coming to St. Croix. Now that my wife is a captain too, I'm back in the water teaching and leading tours.

After getting certified in Curacao I immediately got addicted to diving (like most people do..) I dove a bunch of different places in Europe and the Red Sea before I eventually returned to the Caribbean Sea.. 

It happened in 2002.. My best friend and I left The Netherlands (yes, I'm Dutch) and found our way to St. Croix.. After completing our Divemaster Training and an unforgettable 3 months we returned home. She stayed there, and I decided not to. A few weeks later I came back to St. Croix, and I've been here ever since! 

Living on St. Croix has been great for me; I met my husband, we have a fun and personalized business, I became a licensed captain, have done over a 2000 dives just on St. Croix, and pretty much every day I'm in the water leading dives or I'm sitting on the boat as a captain.. Not too bad, right? 

I absolutely love the diving over here; there is always something new to look at;

uncountable amounts of Critters and Fish, Dolphins, Turtles, Rays, Eels, Sharks and during February/march Whales that are migrating by.. Come and check it out!!
