Comments | This was our 18th trip to Divi Flamingo & it continues to be one of our favorite dive destinations. The weather was windy, water temp about 80 degrees, no rain & really a nice week. The dive operation, run by Serge & Alvin, is excellent. We had Rofino, . whom has been with us many times & Ruud, & had a great week. Free swimming green morays, sea horses, juvenile drum, turtles, we're all seen frequently. More juveniles were seen, especially since they have tried to suppress lion fish. The food is good on site, & we visited Capriccio's( twice), It Rains Fishes, Unbelievable, & the chibi chibi ( on site) & enjoyed all. The studio room was fine, with plenty of space, & convenient to the dive boats. It was a hassle coming back through immigration in Atlanta on a Saturday evening, but the trip was worth it. We will definitely return. | ||
