Comments Dive Cabrette took over another dive shop, they pick up at your hotel and drop you off after diving. Personal service, always ready to assist you. Sosua is not the dive area like Cozumel but there can be some nice diving, saw octopus, sea horse other macro critters.
Chris the owner knew the dive sites and could spot things to see thay you may over look. Most reasonably priced diving and hotels in the Caribbean. This is a nice dive operation, safety conscious, I would recommend over the other dive shops in Sosua.
