I'm going to be cruising in January and need some advice on dive shops at the locations that will work with a cruise ship passenger. I have been diving with cruise ship booked operations and they are generally conservative, decent operations with fairly crowded boats. I have no objections to using those operations, since I know they will get me back before the boat leaves. We are basically scheduled to be in port 8-5 each day.
The islands on the itinerary are:
St. Thomas
St. Croix
St. Kitts
Dominica
Barbados
Only St. Thomas and Dominica have dive excursions listed through the cruise line. I plan to dive three of the islands, spending some time with my non diving family (they are making me). Recommendations on which islands to dive and what operations to use are appreciated. Topside recommendations would also be helpful.
Thanks for the input!
