Hi, I just found this thread and am planning a trip in early July to St. Croix. I hope it's ok if I add my questions...
I would love any advice on where to go with an inexperienced diver (my son, age 13). We strongly prefer shore dives because of weak stomachs and he's only done a few ocean and a few quarry dives in addition to his Jr. OW dives.
Many years ago on an earlier visit when my son was a toddler I dove Cane Bay. I did not mind the swimout at all, so I plan to take him on that one once or twice.
I also dove F'sted Pier at night on my earlier visit, but I'm not sure I want to do that with a jr. open water diver. Is the daytime diving there any good?
Any other good shore diving sites on St. Croix? We'll have a car.
Finally, we may take our bonine and do a boat dive, so which would be the best shop and site for a <60 ft. dive?
Thanks to anyone who might have advice.
