Hi everyone,
In my opinion, the diving in Cay Lobos is great. I've done the trip at least 6 times. I'm one of the Captains. What do I have to compare to it? Red Sea, Puerto Rico, Okinawa (Japan), Australia, Guam, Hawaii, Pago Pago, Wake Island, and most of Florida. I can't say I've dove everywhere and therefore my opinion of great is relative to my own experience.
The itinerary is a little more 'strict' than the Cay Sal itinerary. This is due to the distance traveled. It's a small comprimise we make for seing more pristine and remote sites.
Of all the sites of this itinerary, my favorite is Cabbage Garden. A lot of people seem to choose not to dive the best part of this site, which is the wall. There is a cute little island with a lighthouse that seems to attract many of the divers.
As for the storms and the visibility. This is something that is very unpredictable and our of the control of ALL of us.
I'd love to answer any other questions about this or our Cay Sal itinerary.
