^YES. As a sidemount diver, Airport Caves was another favorite of mine.
I'm a UDC alumni as well and going back to The Rock this July too. My biggest advice would be, bring lots of memory cards and a nice spares kit -anything that would seriously effect your trip, bring a spare (within reason). Also, BRING LOTS OF BUG SPRAY. The mosquitoes murdered me when I was there last!! DEET worked the best. Enjoy Utila, you're going to have a blast. Safe travels!
The bugs are better/worse depending on what part of the island you're on. They were BRUTAL at Utopia when we were there if you had no protection. We wore anti-bug clothes (Ex-Officio I think) and they were extremely valuable.
Our friend Sue closer to the other end if the island says that the wind there blows them all away.
