Comments Accommodations were significantly above average for a dedicated dive resort. (Food and room both.) Almost like a beach resort, not quite. Looking at their website I couldn't tell so took beach resort clothes (long pants and shoes) and wish I hadn't. Shorts and flip flops were the order. Dive boats were pretty crowded, with up to 16 divers. Boats made the effort not to repeat dive locations throughout the week unless requested. Most dives were ten to twenty minutes from the dock. A guide was always in the water and you could follow or do your own dive, as you pleased. The facilities for hanging wet gear were roomy but we had to schlep our own gear. Boat crews were helpful but it was a notch below concierge diving. Still, a great value. I will happily repeat.
