Comments The pier had lockers to store gear between dives-- full height, but one foot wide and SHARED by two divers. Assuming you could jam everything in, it would just stay wet and stinky. Boat rides were often very long and not especially comfortable. I was able to rent a 100 ft3 tank, which was nice. I was able to do just two 50-minute dives a day for six days-- disappointing for someone accustomed to liveaboards.
Coral and critters were underwhelming. I posted just 3 photos on Facebook, where my usual practice is around 30.
I stayed at Steve & Becky's, the budget rooms across the street from the resort. The room was large, quiet, clean, and comfortable, and a very short walk to the resort restaurant and beach and dock.
