My wife and I did a wonderful 2-tank dive on Feb 5 2024 with Chad. The first stop was at “Da Plane” featuring a wall dive plus two wrecks. The first wreck was a single-engine light-plane. The second wreck was a sailboat. From there we made our way along the reef to the wall and its drop-off into the deep blue abyss. As we swam along the wall we saw lots of fish and even a couple reef sharks. After a surface interval, the second dive was on a reef with lots of fish and some cool cave-like tubes you could easily swim through. This was a really special experience with just us two plus Chad diving with us as the guide/instructor. The dive was well worth the effort of a long car ride from North Palmetto Point to Cape Eleuthera.
My wife and I loved our first day with Chad so much we signed-up for the “shark interaction” dive two days later. This dive is very different from getting in a cage with Great Whites or fighting-off Tiger Sharks at Tiger Beach. Instead this was a very educational and up-close experience with Caribbean Reef Sharks ranging in size from 3 to 6 feet. It was so interesting to see how they interacted with all the fish around them and their role to clean the ocean from dead and dying fish. It was exciting to see not only the reef sharks but other game fish like Pompano and Amberjack hanging-in close. Of course there were tons of smaller colorful fish mixed-in too. While it was very exciting, it was never scary and I never felt threatened. Once again Chad was a great guide with a ton of knowledge about these sharks. I would highly recommend this dive for anyone’s first shark diving experience.

2024 年 2 月 5 日,我和妻子与 Chad 一起进行了一次精彩的 2 罐潜水。第一站是“Da Plane”,包括一次墙壁潜水和两艘沉船。第一艘沉船是一架单引擎轻型飞机。第二艘沉船是一艘帆船。从那里,我们沿着珊瑚礁走到墙壁,然后掉入深蓝色的深渊。当我们沿着墙壁游泳时,我们看到了很多鱼,甚至还有几条礁鲨。在水面休息一段时间后,第二次潜水是在珊瑚礁上,那里有很多鱼,还有一些很酷的洞穴状管道,你可以轻松地游过去。这是一次非常特别的体验,只有我们两个人,还有 Chad 作为向导/教练和我们一起潜水。从北帕尔梅托角到伊柳塞拉角的长途汽车之旅非常值得。
我和妻子非常喜欢与查德一起度过的第一天,两天后我们报名参加了“鲨鱼互动”潜水。这次潜水与关在笼子里与大白鲨一起或在老虎海滩与虎鲨搏斗截然不同。相反,这是一次非常有教育意义的近距离体验,可以与 3 至 6 英尺大小的加勒比礁鲨近距离接触。看到它们如何与周围的所有鱼类互动以及它们在清理海洋中的死鱼和垂死鱼方面所起的作用非常有趣。不仅看到礁鲨,还看到其他鱼类,如鲳鱼和琥珀鱼,近距离游动,这令人兴奋不已。当然,还有许多较小的彩色鱼混在其中。虽然这非常令人兴奋,但一点也不可怕,我也没有感到受到威胁。再一次,查德是一位很棒的导游,对这些鲨鱼了如指掌。我强烈推荐任何人第一次体验鲨鱼潜水时都选择这次潜水。
