Comments Had a fantastic time diving with the Juliet around the Bimini islands. The crew (Owner/Captain Liza, Captain Nate, Chef Amanda, Marine Biologist Hilary, Divemaster and Instructor Max) really bent over backwards to take great care of everyone, and they really worked together like a well-oiled machine to keep everything going smoothly. Nate took us to awesome dive sites that were rich with critters big and small, lots to see and plenty of opportunities to get tons of great pictures of a variety of fish. The cabins are all roomy, plenty of room to put all of your clothes and belongings. Those with big scuba gear travel bags could have their put in a storage area so as not to take up space in the cabin. Amanda the Chef did a fantastic job cooking up all kinds of wonderful, tasty dishes for everyone, including a couple of vegans and a vegetarian. Hilary did a fabulous job challenging us to find the "Fish of the Dive" and provided lots of info on things to look for regarding critters at each dive site. Max was an absolute pro as Divemaster, making every dive safe and enjoyable, and handling all the details of each dive with meticulous attention to detail. And Rico the cat greeted us in the mornings, hung out with us on deck, and entertained us during the trip with his hunting prowess both underway and on land. Loved the fact that nitrox is available! Got in a total of 19 dives, including 4 night dives. Krispy Kreme was my favorite dive, got to see lots of scorpionfish, stingrays, turtles, and porcupine puffers on the Sapona. Really loved diving with the Juliet crew, will be going out with them to St. Croix...these guys are awesome!!
