Comments	The Good:- it's truly an awesome place to gain diving experiences. The "F1" drift dive, the "washing machine" currents and down currents. The fantastic and awesome and sexy manta rays at the cleaning stations. the awesome diving into the deep blue, we saw only one tiger shark but lots of large grey sharks and eagle rays. Ask Marc, the owner of the Dive centre to take you to dive at the 'Tuna Fish' factory ship. There are lots of large sting rays [30-40] congregating at the bottom of this vessel. Sharks hunting them. Visibility very bad only at this site.. Bring along a dive light and aahh... awesome sight! The Bad:- If city life is part of your dive itinerary... this is NOT the place! However, you can stroll around the island and take in the sights.
