Rob,

I stayed at that hotel about 18 months ago and the Dive operation is run by a company call Dressel Divers.

http://www.dresseldivers.com/

At the time the dive centre could only offer air fills (no nitrox) and was really set up for the typical holiday divers. The diving is OK, with the highlight being the wreck of the St George which lies about 1/2 mile offshore in 44m of water. The downside was no penitration was allowed and bottom time was very limited as your diving on a single Ali 80.

The hotel itself is great with a fantastic beach.

HTH

John

Hi Rob,

I dived with dive fun a german outfit from Bayahibe [very good]we were allowed to enter the St George and it was awesome, watch the weight allowance though they are mustard hot on the return a guy in front of us had £160 excess charge and he wasn't even a diver I'll find the DC link and post it later.

Safe diving,
Steve

Talking One other thing.....

You might want to be careful when you rummaging around in the wreck. Local legend has it that an 11 foot moray eel lives in it.
