Does anyone have a recommendation? I am guessing the choices are a bit limited at this end of the island. I am certified but not expert. Thanks much!

Two months and counting!

I think this would be the only thing close to a dive shop out that way: http://www.crabbyswatersports.com/

Doug, the guy that owns Crabby's can hook you up. Actually, if you go to ISLAND BLUE'S and just ask for LARRY THE DIVE GUY, he is a GREAT guy, has a GREAT DIVE BOAT and goes out all the time.

I used to live in Coral Bay beofe I moved to STT, and used to play at Island Blues every Friday night, so I know all these people.

You'll be able to hook up with Larry easily enough.

GOOD LUCK AND GREAT DIVING!

That's exactly what I was looking for. Thank you very much! Any other "insider" info about Coral Bay that we should know? We have been there a few times and I love to wander the internet for info, but are there any new bits of advice you would offer?

Sure, make sure you get the chance to go eat at Sweet Plantains, INCREDIBLE local fare. Try to go to Island Blues on Friday night and see Michael Beason on Guitar. Michael and I used to be in the Iguanas, but in Dec of '06 our Mandolin player passed, so as of last may, I moved to STT and Michael is doing solo stuff, but he's really good for the 35+ crowd!!

Get out to Salt Pond and check out all the sea turtles and stuff like that.

HAVE FUN!!!!!!!!!!
