Comments Dive Provo has great staff and a very well run operation. They take divers to the best sites and the dive guides work hard to find the most interesting things to see. They are very safety and environmentally conscious, and they let divers have as much freedom as they like. There were lots of sharks off W. Caicos. Ocean Club West is across the street from the shop - so very convenient and very nice accomodations.
