should have been more aware this was a macro trip; also to accomodate the docking in saba for this liveaboard they are installing a pier that will make the land tours easier.... unfortunately the dredging and after effects caused by this(and for months to come) turned what would have been 4 very good dives into dirt dives and nearly a waste of time. the crew was generally very good, and the bad press the captain has been getting, Ian from England, misrepresented my experience. there were many dives where there was an abundance of juvenile life, but you have to wonder where they go when the get bigger... the island tours were well like by most on the boat. diamond rock and man o war shoals were the best spots on this trip for sea life and vizability |
