Comments I arrived mid-morning on a cruise ship and Dive-Tribe scheduled a private boat trip for me that afternoon. Dive Guide Sidney Santos had spotted 4 nurse sharks under a ledge that morning and was able to take me back to that spot to see them. Although there was no coral, there was a good assortment of tropicals, lobsters, etc. in addition to the nurse sharks.
