Comments We dived one day with Ocean Sports out of Fajardo. We would have dived more days, but the port closed for weather - Ocean Sports gave full refund. Our dive boat, the "Day Off", was a Newton 46' Dive Special, which was very spacious for our family of four. All equipment was is good condition, including soft weights. The captain and crew (all three named Carlos) were very friendly and professional. We also got great service from Leslie, who kept us constantly informed as threatening weather approached. With healthy reefs and good population of marine life, the diving was good in general, but was made special when two dolphins came up to check us out. We plan to dive with Ocean Sports again.

The San Juan Marriott Resort & Stellaris Casino is a great place to stay. Lots of good places to just relax around the pool and on the beach. Beyond the good dining on site, it is walking distance to many other good restaurants, and cab fare is reasonable to anywhere else. Marriott service is consistently top quality.
