Hey Guys,
I'm headed to Punta Cana at the beginning of March for a week while my friends get hitched, staying at the Majestic Colonial Punta Cana resort. I was hoping to get some dives in while everyone else is sleeping off their hangovers.
Does anyone have any suggestions on where to dive, what operators to use, etc?
Trawling the forum here a number of things seem to reoccur.
1. Diving in Punta Cana isn't that great - damaged reefs, not that much marine life, vis sometimes so-so.
2. If you can, take a day trip down to Catalina Island, where the diving is a bit better.
Any thoughts? I'm not too picky and will glad to get back in the water. I find people's opinions on what consitutes "low vis" or "limited marine life" are fairly subjective. As someone who normally dives in the St. Lawrence or Lake Ontario I am planning on having a good time regardless!
Thanks
