Shark Dive:
Absolutely amazing and I would not miss it. We hit it on a day with no current and great vis. 12 -15 Mature sharks so close you could have reached out and touched them.
Dolphins:
Dolphin dive was off due to females in heat. My wife and kids did the snorkel experience instead and they all raved about it.
Random Thoughts:
A. Bring a light, even if you don’t plan to do a night dive. Saw a lot of things in swim throughs and crevices I’d have missed otherwise.
B. We all had some stomach issues but nothing that was debilitating. Bring Imodium AD and antacids. Bring neosporin and bandaids. We all had cuts of some sort by end of week.
C. Employees all seem to prefer tips in cash. Will bring small bills and tip wait staff as we go next time.
D. Prices on rash guards, dry bags etc are reasonable in the gift shop, but they nail you on bug spray and medicine.16.00 For Cactus Juice repellant.
E. A staff photographer dove with us on a random dive and on the shark dive. None of us brought a camera and we ended up buying stills and video. Great shots!
F. Saw recommendations to buy snacks for room. We found meals more than adequate and never ate the snacks we brought. Rythym is breakfast at 7:00, 2 dives, big lunch at 12, pool, third dive, dinner at 6:00, bed.
