How is this place not better known in the diving world?  Maybe the hotel is
a bit worn but the wall here is phenomenal!  While I dove through the best
swim-thrus/caverns at over 100' to come across hammerheads (multiple
times!) my friend, who is a novice diver enjoyed checking out all kinds of
creatures at the top of the wall at 40'.  Always the only boat and not
crowded.  Dive staff were always ready to assist with anything, answer
questions, point out creatures for photo ops and follow any reasonable
request.  Whole resort atmposhpere layed back and Bahamian.  Not much else
to do on island but we were given an island tour, party one evening,
underwater slide presentation through the hotel.  

Wish I had known how difficult/expensive it is to buy supplies here such as
batteries/film/sunscreen.

Maybe I shouldn't tell anyone about this place and keep it a secret.  I
plan to come back again, soon!
