Comments The good: The dive sites were healthy. And the fish and turtles plentiful.
The bad: The cost of Nitrox. We paid an additional $15US for each tank of Nitrox. The charge was inline with all the other dive operators I looked at, but I believe $15 to be excessive. When we went shore diving a tank of air was $12US, and Nitrox $15US. A three dollar charge per tank - reasonable, a $15 additional charge for Nitrox on boat dives excessive. Again, all dive operators charged about the same. We did not shore dive with Indigo Divers.

There were no surprises, Chris and Kate of Indigo Divers communicated very well with us via email in the planning stage of our trip. And I would highly recommend them to any diver of any level.
Thank you.
