Comments All of the positive reports on Ra divers and the resort were accurate. The resort is lovely, the setting is wonderful and isolated. The food is good. The staff is friendly. The diving is wonderful and impressive. We went to mellow yellow, wheatfields, breathtaker and dreamakerThe last day we went to two incredible sites-pure magic and black magic--the latter was unreal-every type of life from shsrks to soft and hard coral. to schools of fish.The site was amazing and I did not want to leave and waited until I was down to 500psi before coming up. One has to be prepared for current which has a two edge sword--difficult at times but brings in the life.There were at times only two divers and the guide on the smaller boat. We went into the passage on two occasions.The resort also has activities for the non diver but probably can add more. Ra divers was good. The guides varied from just an escort to finding critters.We also went to other sites as well.
