This resort has just switched over to Reef divers II. I had the opportunity
to dive with this outfit last year in LC and I was impressed ! After this
years trip to the BRAC, it was obvious last yeas was not luck ! This year
was even better !  We had the opportunity to dive with two exceptional
Captains ! Craig( on Little Sister) and Chris( on Big Sister). Both new all
the dive sites, and consistently put us on great walls and reefs. They new
how to make the trips fun in addition to being eduational( they are top
notch Dive Masters also) ! If your thinking of going, try to get on their
boats, you won't regret it ! 

For future reference, RDII provide you with mesh bags for your mask, fins,
etc. Your reg and BC can stay on board ! We brought our own gear bags(were
actually a family of 4 divers MOM,,DAD,SOn and Daughter) and could have
avoided it !

For those who chose the condo route, if you want to avoid renting a car,
try Billys Market ! Call and Billy will come in his car and pick you up and
take you back when you are done shopping !  His prices aren't bad either by
island standards.
