My wife and I did our OW certification dives here. Awesome staff, not enough can be said about them; you are in the best hands with them. Once you've seen all the sunken treasures (727, Airplanes, helicopter, semi truck, boats, jet ski, etc) you'll probably start to get a little tired of the site, but that's when you should go do some of the walls. Especially head out to "spoonbill point" and try to find the spoonbills; they are awesome to watch! Weekends are usually crowded with all the students that come here for training, but that should tell you a little something about this site. Nearly all the shops I know of around this area come here for training dives, it's that good!
