Comments	Attended a 10day underwater photo workshop with Mike Bartick. The 10days were intense with morning photo review, brief tips to try that day, 2 dives, lunch, afternoon class, 2 dives, and then trying to look through pictures to select for the next day photo review. However, the results were worth the effort. We dove in small groups of 4 with a dive guide, who found critters we needed for improving our macro photography (how do they find some of the tiny tiny stuff!?). Nice camera room with towels, power strips, and storage that is secure on the property. Dive area has places for wetsuits and gear to hang. Boat staff take your gear and cameras to/from the dive boats. Diving is variety of corals, muck, a wreck, and more. The food is served buffet style and is delicious. The staff are friendly and attentive - good customer service. We really enjoyed our experience! Black water diving is also available, which we tried (but my camera had trouble focusing on the stuff).
