OP
Now the diving... As I was in the north, I decided to go with one of the closer operations. BAD CHOICE.
Nothing wrong with the operation itself (Red Hook)... everyone very proffesional and on the safe side, BUT, although I let them know that I am an Instructor, a Tec Diver and that I only had the chance to dive once, that this was the reason why I didn't want to do too basic dives, they put me in the boat with OWD students. The result, my dives were at 40 ft, huge disapointment. The reef was nice, but definitelly wasn't what I wanted to do, I sadly see this practice more and more in the caribbean, they just don't care about you, they want to charge big money for a crappy service, they just do the easy thing, never go above and beyond.
Next time, I'll have to take the commute time and get to a better diving center.
