Conch Club divers is one of the best, if not the best dive operation I've had the pleasure to dive with. Bill (owner), Tim, Wes (and "half-staff" frequent-visitor-work-on-the-boat-while-he's-there crew member Paul) did all they could possibly do to make the diving enjoyable. They made great effort to get to the best sites each day, gave very good briefings, and made an effort to show us stuff underwater. But they do not hover over you underwater. They watch out for the environment and nicely indicated when we were getting too close to the corals and other parts of the reef (I'm a photographer and realize that I sometimes am touching something I don't realize I'm touching). The boat is roomy and they usually don't have more than 14 or so divers, although the week we were there were as many as 20 divers a few days. Conch Club condos are nice and roomy and the food at Little Cayman Beach Resort is very good. I consider Conch Club Divers the pinnacle of dive operations. |
