Comments	This dive operation has a dive shop and office onsite at Limetree Beach Resort at Frenchman's Bay on the south side of St Thomas. This was a well run operation with care taken to see that each diver had a safe and pleasant experience. The dock where the boat goes out from is not at the resort, but at a marina some distance away. You have to drive to it and park or take a taxi. It would be great if the resort had a van shuttle that could take divers to the marina. This could be an option added to the price of the dive package. Multiday diving can be booked and paid for in advance, but if you are not able to do some days it is expected that you reschedule for other days or take a credit for a future trip. If you are diving for several days in a row, you can leave your dive gear with them to rinse out and dry for the next day. Despite poor visibility from rain runoff, we had good dives each day. There was no current at the sites we dove.
