The July 99 issue of Undercurrent nailed it, and basically, there have been no real changes since then. You can get 2 morning dives now without being in a group. It's a beautiful vacation spot, albeit pricey, but diving is just fair. Some good local entertainment in the evening (best steel band we've heard). Go for the ambiance, not necessarily the diving (pretty much as advised in the 7/99 report). |
