Paya Bay Resort offers diving without the crowds. We didn't see another dive boat during the week we were there. Hurricane damage was minimal to the reef. Mooring replacement is planned for summer, 2006. The boat time to dive sites was short. Surface intervals were on local docks. The dive sites were between Pollytilly and Camp Bay along a fringe reef just offshore on the north side of the island. We did scrap one day's diving when a storm passed over, but otherwise did two morning dives beginning at 9 with the option of a third in the afternoon. The Resort has 8 rooms, a large dining room with deck, and two beaches. Food was plentiful and good. The staff on duty the week we were there was wonderful. Overall, it was a good experience. Visitors will want to take a book or two to read in the evening, or be ready to kick back and relax. |
