Spent the last 8 nights in provo diving with Caicos Adventures and staying at the Comfort Suites. I can recommend them both highly. CA was by far the most professional and competent dive op I have ever been with. Their boat, the Caicos Cat, is beautiful and even with as many as 20 people on board it is roomy. During the week we had between 5 and 20 people on board. I also had the opportunity to dive with FIfi on the smaller boat with 2 other divers. Fifi was our Dm for 3 dives during the trip. He is really a nice guy and helped me with many aspects of my diving. The Comfort Suites was a very nice, conveniently located hotel. About a 5 minute walk to the beach and restaurants all around...no need to rent a car and we didn't. Be aware there are 3 floors and no elevator (the no smoking rooms are on third floor). They even gave us a 100 dollar beverage credit whgich I thought was nice.
The diving was pretty good, great visibility (most times) and there were many sightings of reef sharks and eagle rays. I would characterize the walls there as structurally breathtaking but not as lush as I expected. There also were not a lot of smaller life around the coral heads or walls.
The food was grossly overpriced pretty much everywhere with the quality, in my opinion, just average. The one exception was Caicos Cafe (thanks for the the recommendation tim). There I had the best grouper of my life. Danny Buoys was also one of the better places I ate at: an Irish pub on Grace Bay Road. Other restaurants we ate at were: Coco bistro, hemingways, calico jacks, 21 north and barefoot cafe.
All in all a very enjoyable trip with terrific weather every day. Tim: I sent Fifi your regards. If anyone has any questions feel free ti Im me.
