Comments	We were a group of six Seattle area divers/photographers who dove with UNEXSO and Caribbean Divers. We had an outstanding time with both operators, and the Bell Channel Inn was an unexpected plus. The UNEXSO dolphin dive is spectacular. We made two of them. Just wonderful! As noted above, the shark dive is good, but positioning can be a bit of an issue. We also dove Ben's Cave (fresh and salt water), and this was also very nice for photographers. UNEXSO staff were outstanding, except for the still photographer on our shark dive, which did not matter since we were all photographers. The rest of our 10 days of reef and wreck diving were with Caribbean Divers, which we also enjoyed. Everyone in our group wants to head back next year!

UW Photo Comments	Large rinse tanks on board and at docks. Plenty of room on boat for equipment. The dolphin dive is a unique opportunity to photograph these creatures up close and personal. The shark dfeeding dive was good, but participants "sit" shoulder to shoulder on the bottom, so it is a bit difficult if several divers have large DSLR rigs.
