Had to ask several times to get a bucket for my camera, used a cooler which
worked but I had to ask the other divers and snorkel;eres not to but their
masks in it.

Good, loved seeing the whale sharks! Long boat ride, up to 2 hours since
the boat was not working on full power. No oxygen, no first aide kit on
board, saw few life vests.  Promised a trip to Glovers if enough people
wanted to go (5). When I asked were we going told by 3 different people 3
different reasons why we were not. First was not enough people which I knew
was untrue because I had the 5 people that wanted to go standing next to
me, then told no boat, then told not enough people to run the boat (that
they did not have).
I would go whale shark diving with Sea Horse again but I would not do any
reefs with them, kept going to Laughing Bird Caye repeatedly, granted the
third time was due to the swells.
Last day dove with Roberts Grove, what a difference, Big dive boat, well
equipped. Would dive with them in a heart beat.

Cozy Corner was great spot, centrally located.  Rooms were clean, had ac
and ceiling fans. Restaurant food was good and good prices. Need shelves in
bath rooms. Would stay with them again.
