Comments	We were supposed to be on the Bay Islands Aggressor but since it was taken out of service we were offered the Laguna Beach Resort. Factoring in the the trade-off of liveaboard for land-based, the Laguna Beach Resort was nice. The dive boats are uncrowded and would be fine even with a full house. The divemasters and boat captains are very accommodating. Dives are guided but the divemasters factor in the group's skill set and adjusts. There are few fish of any kind and the corals run the gamut from very healthy and colorful to severely damaged...sometimes at the same site. We did see a glimpse of a whale shark, snorkeled with a pod of dolphins and saw frogfish and seahorses which most folks would think would make the week. The staff of Laguna Beach Resort really go all out to serve you. We enjoyed our cabin. The food was tastey but there was not the variety we have seen at other places. There were 16 guests (out of 36 capacity) the week we were there which may explain the variety. No see-ums are BAD if the wind is not blowing. Overall impressions - we enjoyed the diving more for the dive teams and the people on our boat than the underwater sites. Likely, we would not return...but we are liveaboard divers and rarely do a land-based dive vacation.
