I'm going on a cruise next year and one of the stops is Roatan. I tend to book excursions outside of the cruise line. I know all about the boat not waiting for us if something happens, etc. Carnival uses AKR. Ive heard great things about them, but I have a feeling it'll be a "cattle boat". I'd like a smaller group. My wife and our two daughters (ages 13 & 14) are new divers. Can anyone give me any tips? If another shop/resort would be a better choice, etc. Since I'm not staying at the resort, I don't care about lodging, food, etc. I just want quality dives with a great staff. We get there at 0800, and leave at 1500. I'd like to find someone that would meet us at the dock and take us right out. That worked out great when we went to Gr Cayman on a cruise last year. We got right out, and we got back in time to have a couple of hours in town.
According to Carnival's website, a 2 tank dive with all equipment for $101 per person through AKR. So I guess the question is, is that a good deal, or would another place down there offer something better? Thanks!
