Comments While on the other side of the island from Atlantis, Dive Dive Dive daily drove to us from our hotel and back again at no charge. Large boat and 6-8 divers made for very comfortable conditions. Dive masters gave thorough briefings, picked dives sites based on local conditions and diver preferences. Took tank off your BC when you returned from dive while you were still on dive platform. Entries were backwards roll due to transom. A week of hard rain had reduced visibility to 30'-60'. On Bahama Mama dive site, we were in constant contact with 6-10 6' reef sharks throughout dve.

Well run dive operation with professional and accomodating staff.
