Comments  
You have to dive with a member of the marine park on Statia.  The
"coral police" as we called them.  Not a problem though, they
were very friendly.  The coral in pulsing with marine life.  Very vibrant
and healthy coral beds.  Lots of rays, turtles, barracudas.  Octopus on
the night dive.
