Comments	Needed to have a negative Covid test for each traveler 24 hours before departure from Atlanta to Grand Cayman, was done online and worked well. Dive guide gives max depth, max time at each dive location briefing. Safety was very high on the list of priorities; DMs were aware of where divers were and made sure that divers knew what their tank pressures were. Dives were turned around when the first diver reached 1500 PSI. We had 3 Instructors on the boat (Lee, Rowan, and Carl), one would lead the group, the second would trail the divers and the 3rd would stay on the boat. One of the instructors/DMs was brand new to the result and was in training during our week. We had between 12 and 17 divers on the boat during the week, so it was not crowded in the water. No rinse Tank used a sprayer to rinse the salt off after each dive. Separate area to put Cameras before and after the dives. The weather was very good for the week we were at the resort and both boats were able to use the on-site dock to get divers on and off the boat. Resort is well taken care of very clean; the staff works hard to keep it so. Reef Divers does all the heavy lifting for you; divers move to the back of the boat have a seat and the staff brings your tank and BC and helps you put it on. When ready you take a giant stride in and wait for your buddy to descend. The dive guides were very good at pointing out small stuff Accommodations were very nice, lots of room to spread out. Food was plentiful and very good. The Staff was very friendly and were happy to have guests back in the resort. After the great experience I would go back. To get back into the United States we had to take a covid test the resort provided the Doctor and the tests the evening before we left very easy to accomplish.
