Comments	Everything was great except for the fact that the divemaster (Angus) treated me differently because I was on hypertension medication. This was not disclosed to me that I would be put with the least experienced divers with close "tendering" by the divemaster in our group. On more than one occasion, those least-experienced divers ruined the dive for me. And it was humiliating to be treated differently in all of the pre-dive briefings with all divers. If you are over 50 and on any kind of medication, I recommend that you lie because if you are on medication, you can expect to be treated like a child.
