Comments St Lucia is very good diving by Caribbean standards. Water was warm and clear. Reef in most places we dove was in surprisingly good shape. Not an abundance of fish but ok. Nothing really big, no pelagics at least on this side of the island. Told the other side (atlantic side) may see some.Enjoyable diving. Boat easy entry and exit. Great boat crew and dive masters. Highly recommend for beginner to intermediate. Advance divers may get a little bored but is still fun diving
