Comments	Great spot for new divers. A little frustrating for experienced divers. The diving is "by the clock" so plan on ascending with a lot of air left. Also, the reefs are fairly deep, so we weren't able to spend much time on them because the newer divers struggled with racing through their air consumption. The reefs are in very good condition, but fish populations are low due to fishing. The nurse sharks are out and about all the time because the dive shops feed them. I liked the dive shop and our dive masters. They did not really cater to more advanced divers though. Too many new divers to deal with.
