Actually, you're cruising the Lesser Antilles, it seems - eastern Caribbean. Maybe these maps will help a little, but still - take Murph's advice on those forums.

OMG, my 12,000th post?! I got to go diving more. :11:

Moved from Introductions & Greets forum.
 
At St Thomas I would recommend Chris Sawyer and his dive ops......do a search on Google...you will find him

Yeah, like DD said, the "lesser antilles". That's a pretty far-flung list.

Cruise shipping are you?
 
Hi,
In November 2005 in St Kitts I went diving with kenneths dive center http://www.kennethsdivecenter.com/ its a small operation but they have good rental gear a nice dive boat and the staff are friendly and helpful. I would definatly dive with them again.
In Grenada I went diving with eco dive http://www.ecodiveandtrek.com/ again a small operation with good rental gear and a very helpful and friendly staff. I would dive with them again.

I fouind the diving in both St Kitts and Grenada as good as any where I have been in the caribean and better than most.

I hope you have a great time.

Doug
 
Can only answer for St. Thomas, but here's my shot on that:
Chris Sawyer is a very good dive shop, and locally famous for the quality of their day trip to dive the Wreck of the Rhone by Salt Island in the BVI's - a fabulous dive if you get the time, but make sure you reserve with CS well in advance.

For the ultimate small group dive experience, go with Blue Island Divers, they are the best. You'll never be in a large group, they know all the best local reefs & wrecks (and have even discovered several themselves), and whether you are super experienced or just a novice they give great service.

CS & BID actually do referrals to each other, they kinda know they are the 2 best dive shops on the island.
