| On 06/11/04 my wife and I made two dives on the reef with Ocean Quest (a GREAT outfit, by the way). North shore run-off due to a wetter than normal June cut the visibility to about 25' more or less. No, it's not the Carib, but if you're not a "dive snob" and want to broaden your experience, it's a pretty neat dive. No sharks, but we saw turtles, tiger moray, leaf scorpion fish, razors, and heard the spinner dolphins playing a little further out. Topography was great, could be tricky for less experienced divers without a guide. All in all, a VERY enjoyable dive. We'll do it again when we go back. |
