Comments The managers are wonderful and help you with everything. However, our bagagge (nine bags) were delayed for 1 day and we still had to pay for the rental of dive gear. the diving was good not great. the whale shark sightings were very exciting but too quick. Even though we had one hour max for each dive, i still came up with plenty of air and wish i could of had longer bottom times. I found the food to be the worst part of the resort. It was way too heavy and fried. Also the coffee was weak. BBQ night was the best. We were on a new boat called Another Time and it was a great boat. lots of room, fresh water shower, nice tank holders and easy ladders for entry. Kerry our boat captain was excellent always trying to find us whale sharks.
