Comments The Morritts resort is a great location for families. Lots to do, not just a dive resort. if you are looking for a pure dive experience, i would recommend staying right at Compass Point, Ocean Frontiers' own resort.

Morritt's has tons or water sports, yoga, water aerobics, karaoke
at the dock bar - walking distance to several restaurants (5 or 6), plus a grocery store. Ocean Frontiers is close to several restaurants with a beach bar & grill on site - Eagle Ray Grill with excellent food.

note that Morritts has a dive operation on site but i choose to drive the mile to Ocean Frontiers for all my diving - have for 15 years. They are that much better! OF's service, staff and equipment are the great. but the attitude of the staff is what makes it excellent.

of course, it's east end diving so that is always fabulous.
