Dive Conditions

The divers follow the divemaster for the most part. Go up when your air
runs low. Otherwise, the usual 130' rule.

Overall Rating

This was my second journey to Turneffe Island Lodge, and it probably won't
be my last. This is a well-run, guest-oriented establishment with
well-maintained facilities, good food, a caring staff, and good diving. The
place is idyllic; a small, private island 30 nm off the coast of Belize.
The guests were an agreeable bunch, ranging from solo fishermen to couples
with young adult children. (There were no kids there; I think this is
policy, but not sure.)

The dive operation does all the schlepping. Set your gear up the first day,
and it magically reappears for each dive. The boats are relatively small,
with few divers, so it's not crowded at all. The protocol calls for playing
follow-the-divemaster, so independent divers might be disappointed. We did
the Blue Hole one day; a real disappointment. We descended and came right
back up without seeing a thing. An over-rated dive IMHO. 

All in all, a delightful place with friendly people, sunny skies, and good
chow. Wine list needs work, though.
