I posted the following in "Cruises" a month ago and got exactly zero responses so I thought I'd try my luck here.
I'm pretty certain one of my two dive days will be Dominica, need advice on which operator to book with.
Hi all,
I am going with a bunch of family on Jan 8th for a seven day cruise with stops in:
St Croix
St Kitts
Dominica
Grenada
Tobago
Each stop will be a full day (8am to 5pm or later) so it should be fairly easy for arrange diving on my own without worrying about missing the boat at the end of the day.
Since I am the only diver in the group I have agreed to only dive two of these locations but I can have the full day at each of the two for diving. Problem is that, except for snorkeling in Dominica many years ago (wonderful, BTW), I have never been on any of these islands let alone having dived them.
So, if you had the choice of two if the above...which would it be, why, and who would you dive with? I like reef diving as well as wrecks so I'm not really picky there...although a nice drift dive can be awesome! I would rather arrange dives on my own than use cruise excursion operators...BTDT.
Oh, and my strong preference is for boat dives since here in New England all I do are shore dives with long walks and crappy entries, I want to feel like I'm on vacation. BTW, I'm an advanced SSI diver so I have no problem with deeper dives (but also don't have a particular need to go deep)
