So now this is getting bigger.
My father, who was a commercial oyster diver in the Chesapeake Bay exclusively, is going to come. He's in shape but hasn't dove in 30 years. He'll get a refresher course, so many things have changed since he dove, and most of his diving was on surface supplied air in 0-10ft viz about 15ft deep.
My fathers friend, who just picked up diving a couple years ago, says he has 70 logged dives, he's going to come, bring his wife and two daughters who are all certified divers of varying skill levels, but all experienced OW or J OW not sure... So the divers will be 6 certified divers.
My Sister wants to do a try dive here in NoVA and decide whether to pursue OW before she goes. That means we may have 7 certified divers.
My mother and wife don't dive or swim (wife is phobic of water and immersion)
It could be 11 or 12 people staying in total.
Question to the dive community is if anyone knows of a spectacular multi-family villa for a reasonable price in January? If they've stayed at our had some great experiences in the same kind of multi-family dive vacation. Interesting would be specific villas which have great dive access and setups like fresh water tubs.
Or - anyone do the multi-family AI experience with diving? Would that be a better choice? Specific AI's
We would also need a dive op unless a specific AI has an in-house op.
