Comments This was a five day trip for Advanced Trimix Training. The training consisted of both classroom and open water dives to 250+ feet. The shop had an adequate classroom with provisions for audio visual training materials.

A typical day consisted of 2 open water dives followed by class in the evening. Diving was conducted from an approximate 30' boat with ample room for 6-7 sets of doubles plus 3 stage bottles/diver. An excellent lunch is served on the boat.

The Casa Mexicanna Hotel was very good. It's at the edge of the downtown district near the cruise ship docks. Rooms were comfortable and clean with a buffet breakfast included.

Overall a very enjoyable trip for anyone interested in technical diving.
