New and have some question for diving in the Carribean

[The Goose]

another question... my girlfriend doesnt dive but snorkels... any recommendations for dive shops that may let her snorkel a site while I dive?

Almost all operators will allow snorklers.... I'm sure any operator will work something out...

Thanks everyone!

I have some new gear for this year to check out and plan to dive at Coki Beach, just so I can do some easy checkout.

I will contact the Dive Shop for sure... again thanks

"If there's space on the boat, most shops will allow non-divers aboard (some times for free, but usually for a minimal cost). It depends on the dive site if they allow them to pop in. Carlisle Bay -- no problem, in fact that's where many of the 'Cat' operators take their passengers to snorkle."

What does 'CAT' refer to? Again thanks!

Cat = catamaran (those dual hulled boats with sails)

yes understood... thanks wording was just a little confusing

WJM,
I dove St. Thomas last July from a cruise. I used Blue Island Divers ( http://www.blueislanddivers.com/index.htm ). They are a quality organization offering cruise dock pickup and small diver groups on the boat.
