SCUBA...LEARN TO SCUBA
SCUBA...LEARN TO SCUBA
ShoreTrips says...
I was so impressed with this dive operation. The owner is very likable, as is his staff. Their boats are in tip-top shape and are adorned with heavily varnished bright-work. Each time I visited their location I had to walk over to the boats just to take them in. They are probably the prettiest dive boats I've seen. So, if you are into great diving AND great looking boats, then here's your ticket for a wonderful day in the Caribbean sun.
Roatan's reef is so close to shore that, depending on conditions, you could be diving after a five-minute boat ride. Most sites are no more than 20 minutes away.
Your PADI instructor will take you through an introduction to scuba diving, known as a resort course. After 30 minutes of classroom instruction and 30 minutes of in-water demonstration and testing, you will then be taken on a controlled, shallow dive. With just 4 divers per instructor, you will quickly learn the skills necessary to do a safe, monitored dive. The dive will last about 30 minutes, depending on your rate of breathing. If you have never experienced SCUBA before, you are in for a real treat.
Here's an added bonus: This dive shop is located in the very hip Caribbean community of West End. The beach is wonderful, the shops, bars, and restaurants will keep you entertained for as long as you wish to stay.
