 Utilla Dive Lodge was excellent and the service was the same. Rooms were
nice with the Dive boats docked right outside the dining area. We had a 6AM
flight out of Utilla with a 5+ hour layover in San Pedro Sula, but the
manager of the Dive Lodge was able to arrange for the flight out of Utilla
to be later (10am) That was REALLY GREAT!!! Diving was very beautiful and
the captain of the boat went out of his way to try to locate a Whale Shark
for us. On Friday, (out last dive) he succeded. It was awsome. The weather
was just beautiful and the oceans very calm. Overall, it was probably one
of our best dive experiences and we will probably go back very soon.
