Dive St. Kitts does a nice job. Friendly staff. Great pre-dive orientation on shore with map on white board showing both sites that were being dove that day. All sites are less than five minutes from shore. Did seven dives (one night) over three days with Dive St. Kitts. Depths ranged from 30ft to 85ft. Lots of interesting wreck sites (boats, cars, bulldozer, tires) that attracted most of the fish we saw on the trip. Coral is not great with low level of fish life. Saw a fair amount of juvenile fish but not many adults. Decent amount of turtles and rays and lots of large lobsters. Night dive was fun, with plenty of turtles, lattice sea stars, stingrays, and spiny sea urchins moving about. Hotel is clean but outdated and in need of repair. Toilets leaked, no fan in one room and shower heads that sprayed all over the bathroom. Food was mediocre, but price wasn't. For same price at restaurants you could eat at the five star Marriot Resort. |
