Comments Although the diving was pretty good, this operator was less than good to dive with. They had too many people and made us all dive in their little groups. They put together people with no concern for level of certificatipon. I (an instructor) was stuck with newbies and whenever the first person ran out of air we all went up, unless of course you got messed up nd followed another group (as I did). They had cookies and water for us in between dives and after the 2nd dive we were all very hungry. Luckily (for the DM's) there was a boat nearby who they knew, so they got big sandwiches for themselves and then proceeded to eat them in front of the divers. Dive with Fathom 5 instead.
