It's been about 4 years.. but yea... Awesome diving. Now, I'd tell you to do a live aboard. I was on the Aggressor there and it was great. And since you're in the tropics - you get all these quick heavy rain falls all the time. I remember sitting under the canopy, nibbling some snacks, and here comes an open boat with a bunch of divers squinting from the rain pelting them, they hook on to our tag line to do the dive, then after - off they go back to shore.

And then we had to spend one night on shore at a motel before the flight the next day. So we asked, what is there to do, what should we go see... and they told us - "Do not go out after dark around here - you'll get mugged". I told them, there are a dozen of us, and we're pretty big guys, he said, "Doesn't matter - do not leave the property after dark..."

Made me glad we only had one night on the island.

Now maybe things have changed, or maybe that was exaggerated, but that's what happened when I went... But the diving was amazing!
