Hey, talking about "my baby".
Bianca is a great dive, but beware what you wish for....
You should be Advanced certified and/ or have reasonable deep dive experience.
The dive starts with a negative entry and free descent to about 120 ft. The leading divemaster will run a reference line, but this is not to hold on to. Once you arrive on the stern, take a deep breath and enjoy the view. The current varies in strenght, runs usually from stern to bow.
At the bow you reach around 90ft. Nitrox is a must for this dive. On air you have about 12 minutes bottom time on the average profile, while you can double it on Nitrox.
There is always a good chance for big marine life, sharks, eagle rays etc.
Besides that that, there are a lot more wrecks, nice reefs and lot's of critters.
Most diving is drift diving, not neccesarily a lot of current, but the boats follow the divers and pick you up where you finish. The island is beautiful and the people are friendly.
Enjoy it,
Peter
