Comments Very good dive operation. Only had one concern one day when I told the captain and instructor on the boat that a diver was below 600 psi before he made his assent from 80' and returned to the boat with a little over 200 psi, and they did nothing. I did talk to the owner about it. Otherwise, I would highly recommend them. Great divesites. The wrecks are deep but full of fish. All the shallow divesites where loaded with fish as well. Great for UWP.
