Comments Needed a quick dip in the briny to calm the nerves and prepare for a total knee replacement. Southwest had a good vacation package and Stuart Cove had the diving. As an aside, the golf on Paradise Island was available and great. Four nights and three days was sufficient to remind me why I love diving for over twenty five years.
Pick up at the front door was as scheduled, boat assignment was flawless and the water was fantastic. No giant schools of fish, just a little bit of everything until the afternoon shark dive on my second day. Never had so many sharks on a shark feed. They surrounded me, bumped me and enabled me to take incredible pictures.
Just what I needed. A short dive trip that reminded me of the glories of the ocean, a few golf balls to keep me humble, a dive operation that knows what they are doing, nice lodgings and great weather.
