Comments This was our first live aboard and it couldn't have been better (except for the water temperature - we kept asking them to turn up the heat in the pool, but no luck). 4-5 dives a day offered, depths from 30 - >100 feet, drifts were great, small blue hole okay, some wonderful 'aquarium' type dive sites and some mediocre. Out of water options included deserted beaches, fishing, kayaking and a snorkle lobster hunt. Food was great, plentiful, and always with several options. We would definately do it again.
