Comments We enjoyed 6 days of great diving with Rob Willsher, the owner of Vigilant Divers, in April 2012. We have done close to 200 dives throughout the Caribbean, and we were very impressed with Rob's operation and dive service. He takes only 4 divers each trip, so there is personalized attention. Rob is a lot of fun - but also serious about safety, so that's a great combination.

We saw lots of different fish, including a large school of tarpon, which was a real treat. Also saw schools of Atlantic Spadefish, horse-eyed jacks, barracuda, large lobsters, garden eels, Pedersen's shrimp, sand tilefish, glassy sweepers, turtles, nurse shark, and many others. Highly recommended dive op !

This was our first trip to Anguilla and we were very impressed by the friendly people, ease of driving around (though you must stay left), snorkeling opportunities and excellent restaurants. La Vue was a beautiful place to stay and very reasonable - definitely go for a waterfront view of Sandy Ground. And just a 5 minute drive to the dive op.
