Comments Second trip on Turks & Caicos Aggressor II did not disappoint. Friendly, professional crew under the skilled direction of Capt. Amanda. Amazing meals from Chef Dave. Reefs appeared to have more algae than 3 years ago; however, there were not as many lionfish as we expected to see (compared with other areas.) Weather conditions prevented going to French Cay, but we enjoyed very good diving at Grace Bay, Northwest Point and West Caicos. Highly recommend doing this trip and will probably go with them again. However, due to the chaos at the airport on Saturdays, would most likely extend stay on island for a few days and depart on a weekday.
