Hi
I have about 21 dives under my belt but still a nervous diver. Friend of mine will be recently certified and I'm trying to understand how difficult the diving is in St. Lucia? Are there surface currents? In addition, I heard some of the best diving might be drift with very strong currents? Do you recommend that for a new diver and one that hasn't done drift diving before?
Also, if I decided to stay on the north side, will the dive operators still take us to dive in Soufriere? We will probably be renting over airbnb as opposed to staying at a hotel.
How is the diving there in general? I was trying to decide between Guadeloupe, Martinique and St. Lucia (Dominica was my number 1 choice but I need to visit that with my wife) .. moved over to St. Lucia mainly due to a lesser language barrier.
