Comments Kay Wilson ( no relation to either my wife or myself ) runs a first class operation. She has nearly new equipment for your use included in the dive package price. The boat is diver friendly and well maintained. Her staff goes out of their way to make your experience enjoyable and they have great eyes to find the small stuff that is so unique to St. Vincent and the Grenadines. We did two or three dives a day, and they were almost all over 60 minutes in length with some approaching 80 minutes. We saw several species that we had never seen before and the abundance of eels, blenny's, and slugs made every dive exciting. Rosewood Apartments is a very clean place to stay. We had a kitchenette with satellite TV, A/C, two double beds and a large bath with tub & shower. The "continental breakfast" which we purchased as part of our package was juice or coffee and toast. For $5.00 U.S. per person per day it was no bargain and I would forgo that next time.

UW Photo Comments Indigo Dive is primarily oriented to the diver rather than the photographer. They had a fresh water rinse cooler on board and another one back at the shop, and they were careful to get your equipment on and off the boat safely, but there were no other accomodations for cameras.
