The boats are small and don't have a rinse bucket, but the furthest dive is
only 15 minutes away.  Easy to rinse when you return, which is after each
dive.

We have made 3 annual trips to this place and find the diving to be
excellent.  Ron & Laury at Dive Adventures are great to dive with and
find all kinds of cool stuff to photograph. They also don't try to rush us.
 The diving is in small groups so we go at our own slow speed.  The reefs
are sooooo beautiful you don't want to miss anything-seahorses, highhats,
and other things you don't see everywhere.  

It can be difficult to get in and out of Bequia, but we find the best bet
is to go through St. Vincent and then ferry over from there.  The ferry is
within walking distance of the Gingerbread Hotel but they will gladly pick
you up.  The dive shop is about 100 yards from the hotel.  Not much going
on in Bequia, but the people are very friendly and the diving is wonderful!
