Hello fellow SBers.
We are off to Grand Cayman in two weeks and I have a question about tipping at Cobalt Coast.
We usually dive 3x a year at Scuba Club Cozumel and tip as follows:
$5 per tank per person for the DM
$10-15 per day to the boat crew which is the Captain and two amazing crew who help us in/out of the water and with moving gear to new tank for the second dive.
I hear Cobalt Coast has 2 DMs on the boat plus the Captain. No crew per se.
One DM goes in first and leads the group and then is out first to help divers back on the boat.
Second DM is last in after helping all divers into the water and then last back on the boat.
What is the normal tipping charge with a set-up like this? Depending on the # of divers we may or may not follow the DM as we hate crowds all trying to see what s/he is pointing out and may just go our own way.
Would love to hear from everyone who has been there.
Thanks
Betty
