Comments We had heard about Laguna Beach Resort from undercurrent.org and were not disappointed! Nice airconditioned cabins over the water, great water pressure, jugs of drinking water in each room. Dive staff, especially Adam, was outstanding! Took the time to show us the "little stuff"..."herd of seahorses", tiny shrimp, nudibranchs, etc. Captain went looking for whalesharks while on surface interval. One day came across 12 dolphin swimming with the boat, the captain said to jump in with mask, fins and snorkles on, so we did and in minutes were surrounded by dolphin swimming past us! Awesome! Food was local and tasty, always plenty to eat! Bartender, Manuel, was polite and professional. Bring lots of bug spray! Only downside was the no-see-um's and mosquitos!!
