Comments Wow, what an awesome trip. We have never done so much diving in one week like this, we are now spoiled. This is definitely on our “do it again list”. Fantastic cook and excellent food! Hot chocolate (with Irish Cream, if we like) after the night dive! Meats and vegs are fresh and varied. Desserts and snacks. Unlimited beverages. A great, fun crew made for an enjoyable week. They bent over backwards to make sure all passengers were taken care of. Everyone on the boat had a great time and appreciated the crew’s efforts (except for one jerk that complained about everything). An excellent dive boat arranged for the convenience of the diver. Plenty of room for everything. A hot shower and warm towel on the dive deck after every dive. Separate camera and equipment rinse tanks on each side of the dive deck. The diving was great with plenty of healthy marine life and corals. We could do 5 dives every day and 2 on the last morning. The two morning dives are at one site, two afternoon and one night dive at another site. Nitrox 32 was $10/tank or $150/week whichever is less. Tank fills was around 3,200 psi every time. Dive our own profile or follow a dive master, whatever we prefer. Shore excursion to Half Moon Caye for bird watching is worthwhile. Make sure to take a camera. When we got home, our house felt like it was rocking until the following Wednesday. (www.peterhughes.com)
