Comments This is my 5th report in 2 years. I have over three hundred dives since 1966 and I am 72. I am a Rescue Diver in France since 1968 and in USA for 3 years (for fun!). I do not dive for challenges any more. So, my my wife a diver with 60 dives under her belt and I went to another location with Sandals. This is efficient and relatively un-expensive. We are able to go to the fitness center, the sauna, have good lunch and dinner and dive twice a day. No chalenging diving but enough to make my wife focusing and me to take pictures and laugh while relaxing.
21 dives in 2 weeks was a little borring for me but not for my wife!
