Having a fantastic time diving this week in Grenada! We will have completed approximately 17 dives in 7 days including a wreck and a nitrox course. Dive crew has been amazing. (Aquanauts). However, I have no idea what to tip! Suggestions please.

Dive number 100 was reached on Tuesday!
 
In the Caribbean it is like restaurants - about 10% is normal for good service. In some US territories they expect more like 15%, but generally people are grateful for what they get.

$5 per tank, per person is the low end of the going rate. $10 is the high end.

PS - for future reference you should really tip at the end of each dive/charter because in most cases the staff can change from day to day. Tipping at the end of the week makes it hard to ensure an equitable distribution.
 
$5 US per tank------keep it easy & simlpe.....
 
Did you get to the Bianca C yet? That is the Grenada dive site on my bucket list...
