Dear all,
with our family we are planning a 3-week sailing and diving trip to Abaco (Bahamas); we will have our own diving gear, just renting and refilling the tanks at various dive shops.
I purchased "The Cruising Guide to Abaco 2023" by Steve Dodge, which was supposed to have many dive locations indicated, but sadly it is very poor with detail. I am reading online about suggested spots such as "The Towers", Grouper Alley, Wayne's World, Cathedral, Tarpon Reef, Coral Caverns, Catacombs, Ledge, etc. but none of those are in the Guide. Even the dive sites that are mentioned are only "high level" location on the map with no clear idea on how to plan the dive etc.
I don't mind hiring a local divemaster, but what I've been able to get response till now is that you are either diving with a resort or a charter - they don't do "daily guided tours" or a divemaster-for-hire.
So I would be immensely grateful if anyone here has any decent map/location info for good dives there, so I could plan our dives accordingly?
much appreciated!
