Comments My partner had dived with these guys multiple times before and enjoyed it. This was my first time with them. Overall I would say they were great to be with. They supported us with logistics and practicalities on the boat and gave a great guided dive. I'd never dived around Bequia before and I was actually blown away by how good a shape the coral was in despite being in a hurricane zone. Mostly hard corals but great sea fans etc. and really colorful sponges. Because they don't get hordes of divers, is probably why the corals and sponges were in great shape - there aren't many people kicking and standing on the corals. Due to the nature of the reefs and walls around the West and Southwest coast there is some variable current as the tide moves in and out. So the dives can be drift dives to varying degrees. We always felt safe with our dive guide. There are a lot of fish down there and it surprised me that there were even some sizable, parrotfish, etc. unlike my experience in many Caribbean locations where everything seems fished out. We saw multiple seahorses on every dive. Overall a great diving experience and I would definitely go there again to this location as well as with this dive operation. Just one other point is that we were diving in hurricane season so though the weather was mostly sunny, there were definitely some cloudy and rainy days. The weather could also change from the time you went down to the time you service. I gave three stars for snorkeling in this review but that was from the shore. Not snorkeling over dive sites which some people definitely do.
