Gulf Diving LLC

Diving Boat

The M/V Fling and M/V Spree are now owned and operated by Captains Ken Bush and Frank Wasson, Sharon Cain and Melanie Wasson. Our collective experience with the Fling and the Spree in the Flower Garden Banks National Marine Sanctuary goes back to the days before the Sanctuary was born. We operate from Freeport, Texas, offering 2 - day and 3 - day charters to the Flower Garden during the summer dive season.

We wholesale our charters to dive shops. Check out our calendar for trip dates and store info--then give your favorite dive shop a call to book your trip to the Flower Gardens.

Gulf Diving, LLC reserves the right to refuse service to any one at anytime for any reason.

Gulf Diving,LLC reserves the right to cancel any Gulf Diving, LLC charter due to inadequate sign up which makes the trip economically unfeasible to operate. In this case a full refund will be given to the client
