Comments Dive operation is well run and will work with the dive group on desired outcomes. The resort is positioned on the north coast near the turtle farm so it can easily move to the west side if the winds are unfavorable. While the shore diving was closed a couple of days there were always dive options. We did not see a lot of large animial life, but overall reef life was healthy with lots of small and medium sized fish, rays, eels ect. highly recommend this facility. Food was good but not outstanding, poured honest drinks.

Shore diving was very nice but a goodly surface swim to get there, makes for a nice if tiring night dive.
