Comments	Casa Del Mar Dive Center is located in Fajardo on the East side of Puerto Rico. They offer a half day trip to Culebra Island. The price of the trip included lunch and was a good value as well as delicious. The Dive boat was spacious, had plenty of shade as well as fresh water to rinse off with after the 2 dives. The boat had all safety equipment including oxygen. The staff was friendly and helpful. They set up gear and changed out the tanks. They gave a good dive briefing and had a dive master to lead small groups. Everyone was allowed to dive their own profile. Chips and freshly made salsa and fruit was offered between dives. Plenty of water and soda as well as beer (but only after diving was concluded!)Lunch was set out at the end of the second dive. Yummy We went out with Casa del Mar the next day for local reef diving and had 2 more great dives. The coral at Culebra Island as well as the reef diving was fantastic! Lots of turtles, nurse sharks and a couple spotted eagle rays. I would recommend this dive company to anyone visiting Puerto Rico.
