Comments Deep Blue Resort staff did everything they could to make you feel like you were part of their family. Food is buffet style for breakfast and lunch. You have choices of what you can order for dinner every day. Dinning / common area open 24 hours a day, always coffee and hot water available. Food was good and was always ready when you returned from your boat dive for lunch!
Boat divemasters and captain were the best. Attentive to your every needs. They had your gear sent up and ready to go every morning.
The only why to get to resort and back to town is by boat. They will take you to town anytime you want to go, and pick you up when you would like to come back to resort.
Bring bug spray, some divers were attacked by the dreaded “no see ums“! This is a laid back casual clothes dive resort.

UW Photo Comments More geared for the point and shoot cameras as most dive resorts are. No table in room to use for camera set up. Boat did have cooler just for cameras. Boat staff very attentive to helping with your camera entering and exiting water!
