Comments Ocean Frontiers make diving easy. You hand your gear at the begin of a week of diving, and you never have to touch it again, till you are ready to suit up to dive. They will have everything set up for you and at the end of the day, rinse and store you gear. The next it is all ready for you to dive again.
Their dive briefings are complete and very colorfull the way they diagram each site. I dove 17 times in 4 days and we never repeated the same dive site.
Boats are well kept and maintain. There was a large rinse tank for cameras. All boats had shade for those who wanted out of the sun. Dive sites were never more than 30 mintues from the dock.
