Comments Great dive experience. Three 2-tank morning dives, one night dive. Dove on the Benwood wreck (morning & night dives), North North Dry Rocks, Five Fingers, Bouy #2 Drift (Five Fingers reef), Brodie's Reef, Molasses Reef (Ball #9).

All dives had healthy reefs and abundant fish life. Barracuda on almost every dive at every site. Night dive on the Benwood showcased large parrot fish, morays, a sea turtle, stonefish,more lobster than you could count, and (sadly) three lionfish.

Quiesence has a max of 6 divers per trip and you will be thrilled when you see the cattle cars from other area dive operators. Boat captains made visibility a priority and gave excellent site briefings.
