Comments We had a great time with Salt Cay Divers and staying at the Tradewinds. If you looking for shopping, nightlife and spas Salt Cay is not for you. On the other hand if a basic clean room, great diving, good food, and a quiet holiday is what you are looking for you will love Salt Cay. Debbie at Salt Cay Divers set us up with Tradewinds and with transportation to and from Salt Cay. It was like going back to the Caribbean 50 years ago. The diving was very good and accommodating to all levels. While we were diving there was a Junior diver. Our Dive Master Richard led the shallow group and allowed us to do our thing. I would highly recommend Salt Cay Divers and cannot wait to go back.
