Comments Aldora lets the divers on boat choose dive site and tries to group divers of similar experience. Fast boats and early departure = first on sites on first dive.Are willing to go to most southern sits and arranged trip to barracuda for us. No negetives.We stayed at Villa Aldora, just north of town.Great place right on water, good diving in front. Nick Southall
