Dive Review of
Peter Hughes/Sun Dancer II in
Belize/Lighthouse Reef, Turneffe Isl.

Many places in the South Pacific, Western Pacific, Bahamas, Florida Keys,
California Coast and the Caribbean.

Dive Conditions

Dive within computer limits, return to the boat with at least 500 psi.  

Excellent camera gear table with air hoses and a continuous supply of dry
towels.  They were not yet set up for digital photo transfer or CD burning,
though Captain Mike generously offered using his own personal computer.   

Overall Rating

This was offered as a Valentine's Day special and for some reason the boat
wasn't full.  We had 12 passengers on a boat that would accommodate 20. 
Lucky for us.  We had an excellent staff & crew.  The accommodations
were the best I'd had on a liveaboard.  The food was top notch and there
was plenty of it.  Fresh fruit and snacks whenever you wanted it.  A first
class operation.

The reefs we visited were healthy and in surprisingly good shape, though an
absence of large animals.  There were lots of reef fish, gorgoinia,
sponges, corals and critters.  Thorough dive briefings were given before
each dive.  Every dive was led by a crewmember, or you could dive your own
profile.  No babysitting here.  The crew paid special attention.  It seemes
they sincerely wanted us all to have a good time, which made for good fun
and an overall feeling of comradre.  

In the water near Lighthouse Reef for a couple days we encountered some
kind of stingy stringy thingys that we couldn't identify.  Almost everyone
got stung.  I captured a couple on digital photograph, but still haven't
been able to find out what they are.  The crew was awesome and supplied
vinegar and topical treatment for us that helped.
