Overall Rating

Selected Jamaica Scuba Divers (divejamaica@yahoo.com) for a group of 12
divers off a cruise ship.  Christian, a very friendly person and our
primary contact, met us at the tourism office just off the cruise ship pier
and we were quickly off to the resort to gear up and get to the boat. 
Diving was off pangas at Runaway Bay, about a 30 minute ride from the pier.


Service at the resort was great.  Staff took care of paperwork, secured
necessary equipment and got the gear to the boats, making sure everyone was
well cared for.  A secure locker was available for valuables.

Diving was better than I had expected, comparable to other close in dives
in much of the Caribbean.  First dive was a tug boat wreck in at about 70
feet, teaming with fish and a couple of interesting passthroughs.  Second
dive was on a shallow reef that served as a nursery with lots of juveniles
and other small critters, plus a couple of turtles that passed by.  We had
a couple of snorklers in our group who really enjoyed being 20-30 feet
above us during this dive.

After the diving, we had drinks and snacks at the bar next to the dive
center and then it was back to the ship, where we were dropped off as close
as possible to the entrance gate.

Overall, Christian and his people get an A+ for service.  The diving was a
solid grade of B, a good choice if you want to get wet rather than explore
topside activities in Jamaica.
