This was one of the best dive trips I have taken.  The accomodations and
the food were the best.  Lodge staff very friendly.  The dive operation was
top notch.  Never had to touch any of my equipment after arriving.  Was
washed and dried at the end of the week.  Reef very healthy and a short
boat ride from the resort. Blue Hole a let down. Take bug spray.  Bugs
present but not too bad.  Take some cash.  Everyone is so friendly and
professional you will want to tip.
This is an operation that we plan to go back to.
