Dive Review of
Anchorage Hotel &Dive Center in
Dominica

 Bonaire, Curacao, Little Cayman, Grand Turk 

Dive Conditions

Check out dives, recreational dive limits. Come up with 500psi Once the
dive masters got a feel of our groups they would let you stay in the water
up to 60 min.  

Camera bucket (old cooler) on board boat, cleaned out every day.  DM or
Captain would hand your camera to you after you splashed in.  

Overall Rating

Dominica is a great destination.  As you approach the island it looks like
your going to a set of Jurassic Park.  The spiral approach was one of the
best thrill rides I've been on! It take a few hours to drive over the
mountains to get to Roseau.  The taxi will take you to a grocery if asked
before or after you check in.  When getting into a taxi to go into town
always ask what the fare is per person.  The set-up for the Anchorage Dive
Center was very easy.  Boats pulled up to the dock right in front of the
resort.  No lugging tanks and equipment. DM's and staff had everything on
the boat ready to go. Started the week using Miser's Dream a 60' Cat, more
room than any boat we have been on.  We would average 16-20 divers a day. 
Our group had 14.  By the end of the week we were on the Passion a 75'
sailing Cat.  Great for surface intervals, just lay out on the netting. 
Between dives water or juice was available, after the last dive rum punch!
The diving was great.  Best site was Champaign, alot of small critters, the
coral was in great shape.  This is the first island we have been to that
there is as much to do above water as below.  Mountains, rivers,
waterfalls, wildlife, and rainforest.  Your afternoons can fill up quickly,
take time to go to Ti Tou Gourge, Trafalgar Falls and the Indian River
(were parts of Pirates of the Caribbean II and III we filmed.
The resort was basic.  If you want a larger room get the Oceanfront Rooms,
Poolside and Standard rooms are SMALL.  Rooms are spartan.  Daily maid
service, beds made, fresh towels daily and room cleaned.  Restaurant basic
fare.  Breakfast was filling, ate two dinners there before we ventured out.
 Great restarant in Roseau, La Robe Creole, the Green Flash is with-in
walking distance from Anchorage. It rained the night before we left and
America cancelled our morning flight.  Ended up staying the night Theona's
Courtyard, before we could get a flight off the island.
