the best i have ever encountered. big camera tank, three level camera
table. lots of help with anything you asked for. low pressure air and
camera towels on table. e-64 proccessing. big tv for video. this is the
standard all others must be judged by. this is the best for a diver with a
camera hands down...........along with lots of great subjects on every dive
and a knowledgable staff. it does not get better unless you are on colypso.

the is the ultimate dive experiance for any diver how likes to dive, dive,
dive, and dive. oh ya you also eat and sleep.... 5 or more per day!!!
nitrox is the only way to go... great bottom times and not that old tired
feeling after 3 or 4. hot tube on second deck was great after the night
dive or any time. the food was fantastic even if it was not a boat. the
cabins are just fine for the amount of time you spend in them. well
maintained and almost bug free, if youn pack right there is plenty of room
for two and the bed feels great after 5 dives. a couple of small problems
with heads and nitrox over the week, but the crew is right on ot. the
captian (Sam) was great, he did everything in his power to see to our
comfort and enjoyment. jaun, chris, and steve are great hands and crew.
they jump right in and will show you what is up on the boat and below the
water. the cooks did a great job of three meals a day and snacks all
day...the shower, soap, and hot towels on the back deck was the best. Hang
your skin and it would dry by the next dive. if you shower with it and take
it off in the shower it was always clean and did not pick up that special
smell that comes with a week of diving. the sea life was great and you
found some new creature on every dive both big and little. I will do this
one again and again. this is the RR of diving and i will have to try other
locations. once you go this way it is hard to go back to land based resorts
again. the sights in belize are right out of National Geogrphic, caves,
ruins, and wild animals you name you can see it. Belize City should be
seen once, but that maybe enough, except for traveling in and out. It is
mr. Toads wild ride hang on and close your eyes, your driver has..... if
you dive you have to do this. I am not all that hard to please, but I know
a good time when I see one and if there was some negitive I would see it,
not it, let some one in charge know, and tell it here......
