Diving in Antigua

[CruiseKing]

Prior to leaving for a cruise with a stop in Antigua I did some research about diving there on these boards. It seemed the general consensus was not to bother. Well after a one day port stop on my cruise I wished I had more time to dive in Antigua. I dove at two sites just outside of English Harbor located on the south side of the island. There I found a great dive operator called Antigua Scuba Center. It is a first class operation run by Carlo & Mary Lou Costantini. We dove off an 8 passenger 30’ Islander Hopper which was very well maintained and clean. There is room for 8 divers and is fully equipped to meet any divers needs whether for comfort or emergency. If you think transportation is problem, no problem. They offer prices with or without transportation. The day I dove it was Carlo himself who played chauffeur. They use well maintained Scubapro gear should you need to rent . They are in the process of moving the shop over to an even more convenient location in Long Bay at Pineapple Beach. If going to Antigua don’t miss out on the great diving they have to offer with a first class operation that Carlo & Mary Lou run at Antigua Scuba Center.
