Comments Dive house did a great job of managing our group of 10-12 divers with a range of skills and experience. I arrived two days late due to weather delays but received a personal orientation briefing from the DM on arrival. Dive House offered to let me make up missed ones with afternoon dives. Nice. Dive briefing before each dive. DMs were particularly helpful to requests for special assistance (e.g. hauling BC's up at end of dive). Staff washes and cleans equipment and suits each night and returns it, neatly packed, to your boat in the morning. I missed two days of diving due to weather but DH allowed me to do tow days of afternoon dives without charge. Dive House DM's are local so know sites very well (unlike some other operators). I found DM's and staff professional and safety conscious.. Good fish and critter life. Reef seemed healthy with little bleaching. I totally enjoyed the diving and recommend Dive House.
