Great dive operation in a fascinating location. We're not normally cold-water divers, but we really enjoyed the Poor Knights. Large diversity and abundance of fish, critters, in a beautiful setting. Dive boat one of the best (day) boats I've ever been on. Suzette & I were the only divers, but they took us out (24km!) all the same, no grousing. Dive guides Michelle and Jury were both great. Nice boat tour of the islands during surface interval. Wish we had time to dive more of the sites. Arches, caves, points, etc. Coldest diving I've ever enjoyed! Drive to Tutukaka very pretty. Highly recommend Pacific Rendezvous for a place to stay; the hot tub is just about essential at the end of the day. |
