Comments This place is FANTASTIC. The staff are all very friendly, helpful and knowledgeable, and good fun to be around. They even got my wife to do a Discover Dive, which was a great achievement considering she didn't even want get on the boat with me on my first diveof our holiday. Hire equipment was available and in good order and range of dive sites offered was extensive including a wreck at 115 to 140feet. Visibility was upwards of 60feet and the water was always warm, so much so that I felt warm in my 2/3mm shorty. A rash vest/t-shirt would be adequate. Marine Biologist on site. All in all a fantastic centre with fantastic staff. (This was not booked through a holiday operator. We flew with Virgin, who were great, and had private accommodation on the island. We went to ca few dive centres before finding this and were immediately impressed and completed 8 dives with them.)
