Dive Review of
Ocean Encounters/Sea Aquarium Resort in
Curaçao

Many Caribbean islands, Costa Rica, Hawaii

Dive Conditions

both depth and time limits were imposed, even for those of us with
computers.  Also were required to stay with group on drift dives.  

Have separate large rinse bucket on boat for cameras -- no masks, etc.
allowed (thanks!)  I do not remember any shore facilities for cameras. 
Divemasters were good about handing camera gear down to divers in the water
and taking it back on board at end of dive.  

Overall Rating

Divemasters were very well trained and safety consious.  Dive boat was very
comfortable.  

As "mature" divers my husband and I would like to have the option
of the staff handling our gear for us as the Grand Turk divemasters, and
some other places, always do.  Setting up our gear on the tank, switching
it between dives and rinsing it at dive day's end are not our idea of fun. 
We can check the setup to be sure all is well without doing it ourselves.

One complaint was that the dive operators changed the location of the next
day's dives to ones we did not want to do, then were very reluctant to let
us out of doing those dives without being charged anyway.  They finally
relented but not without pressure from us.
