Comments I wish I had known the resort Dive House was housed on would be charging a $5 per day per diver cash fee for the pier. Not a lot of money but irritating.
The Bad - hotel. Run down with maintenance problems/ poor restaurants/ smell of sewer around rooms.
The good - Dive House and staff. Well run. Had four young ones do their certifications and Dive House did a great job. All enjoyed themselves and got great training. Boats are professionally run. They took good care of gear including cameras. DMs were good at pointing out features/creatures for divers and keep good oversight of groups. Really a great operation for divers that need DMs. Did not try more advanced diving on this trip so cannot speak to that.

UW Photo Comments Because of diving with less experienced divers and in a group, was not able to spend lots of time on a subject and not as mush time looking. But the DMs did a pretty good job of pointing out some things and took good care of equipment.
