Comments I can and would highly recommend Belize Pro Dive Center if visiting San Pedro/Ambergris Caye. The Dive op is exceedingly professional, well run and safe. The Boats are immaculate, the dive team well trained and the service is excellent. Probably the best customer service that I have experienced in the Caribbean. The week started out a bit windy and the surface was choppy but the dive team was very effiencent and safe in orchestrating the entry and exit from the boat. The dive masters are watchful but not intrusive for the level of dive experience that each diver has.

We stayed at a hotel that was not affiliated with the dive shop so I will review that separately
