Stayed at Harbour Club next to the dock, excellent little villa. Bumpy ride
to town and restaurants, but provided full kitchen and short walk to the
boat. Dove French Cay and West Caicos exclusively. Saw sharks on most
dives, along with plentiful tropicals. Also mackerel, grouper. Fewer tuna
and such as a Japanese fleet was fishing nearby and cleaning out the edible
species. Fifi was filling the boats, and took the more experienced divers
for himself on one of two boats. The two Catamarans he operated were very
stable and spacious, great for the 45 min. trip to French Cay. Only shore
diving was on Grace Bay. Hired the dive operator at the Coral Gardens for
two night dives.
