Comments	As they say'it is like camping at sea,but it is a blast mixing with all the divers on board the boat.everyone begins to bond after about a day at sea.some of the divers put their pics and videos on the television at night as everyone told their stories of intrigue about the days daily diving encounters.the blue hole was the first dive and it was a great site to start the trip!the tropical fish were diverse and seemed plentiful as we moved from dive site to dive site.the shark feed was a lot of fun about half way thru the trip.near the end we did the washing machine with all the divers involved and it was something you will not forget!!!all the divers came up at the same time and it was a 100percent success for all the divers.there was a lot of octopus everyday on our dives,but more so on the night dives each night.they were seen every night dive! This trip is a lot of fun and well worth the money.Yes it will be a great trip for beginning divers and very good for experienced divers.the comraderie on board is a large part of the trip;especially at night when all gather on top deck with cold draft beer and drinks of your choice to mix and mingle!!!
