Just Got Back!
Spent July 22-29 at Sunset Waters and can't compliment them enough. Took advantage of the all-inclusive package, including six 2-tank dives off their boats and shore diving on their house reef that included my first-ever seahorse sightings (multiple times) and viewings of octopus, turtles, rays, and some of the healthiest coral I've seen. Dive op (run by Lynn Bean) is absolutely top-notch, with a crew that embodies "customer service." I've heard Sunset Divers (the Sunset Waters dive shop) described as a "liveaboard-ashore" and it was wonderful.
Mushroom Forest is an absolute must-dive. Even better, pluck down the extra $50 for a trip to Watamula, at the northern-most point of the island for an experience that my wife called, "Mushroom Forest on steroids" and others called MushForest "times a hundred." I can only describe it as entering one of the grand cathedrals of the world, only underwater. Remarkably beautiful. Words fail me, quite honestly.
I must have said to the wife, "I love this place," a hundred times or so. I've heard of PBD -- Post-Bonaire Depression -- but surely I'm experiencing AFLAC (like the duck) -- Another Foreigner Longing After Curacao.
