Dive Rating:

The Store:  If you are looking for a dive shop, you have come to the wrong place. There is no office per say.  They have a desk, right where the boat docks. Sufficient enough to collect your money.  Capt Craig answers his cell phone more than any other Capt. I know.

Their Boats:

I have been aboard many dive boats in my past 25 years of diving, and by far Capt Craig Smart is the best!  His Dry Crew, Linda, takes care of you like your mother would.  They are the most pleasant to dive with.  They are safe, courteous, and will accommodate you in any way they can. You can teach classes, drift dive, wreck dive, photo dive, tech dive, or just boat ride. 

They have cookies, water, and soda for between dives. Their boat is a 34' C.G. certified boat that can hold 22 passengers, but you will never have more than 14. The price for a 4 hour trip, 2 tank dive is $50.00 not including tanks. You can book the whole boat or just one spot!

My husband Tony and I used to use them for most of our classes and Dive and Dines. The boat docks right by the Key Lime Old House Restaurant in Lantana.

Who should dive with this operator? Any one, novice to tech.

 
The Dives: 

The boat ride to the reefs only take about 20 to 30 minutes.  If you are diving on nitrox with a computer, he usually lets you dive for an hour each dive.  Of course that is if you have enough air!  Spearfishing and lobstering is also allowed, as long as you have your permits and licenses. The deep wreck, Skycliffe, he can find , EVERY TIME!

The Bottom Line: So give them a try, and tell them Karen and Tony sent you.
