Let me start by saying that I have not had the pleasure of diving in the Caribbean YET. that will be changing very very soon.
However, if it cost $70 for a 2 tank boat dive I say WOW, what a bargain. My diving has consisted of diving off Southern California (in a lot colder water) and Hawaii. the cheapest cost for a boat dive here is about $89 (you can do 3 dives though), and in Hawaii it is hard to find anything less than $100 unless you purchase a package deal from some diving op.
Personally I look at it as I'm on vacation. I have done my research about the place I am going to and have an "idea" or ballpark figure on what it is going to cost me for my activities. I also surf the web to find out what else is available as far as extra activities to make sure it offers me what I like to do.
Just my thoughts.
