Palmetto_state Posted January 17, 2010 #1 Share Posted January 17, 2010 We are looking for some feedback concerning diving. We are going to St.Thomas and St. Martin. We would like to dive at only one location and are hoping for some opinions as to which island has better diving, should we book our own or through the ship (we've booked outside the ship before therefore we feel comfortable doing it and know the risk). So diving in Thomas or Martin? Thanks for the advice.:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dgonza Posted January 17, 2010 #2 Share Posted January 17, 2010 Never been to St Martin, but from what I have read it is not all that great. However, I have been diving in St Thomas and it is pretty good. I would book independently. If you want a beach dive I would suggest Coki dive club at coki beach. Im sure Bruce will pipe in sometime and he recommends Admirality dive for a boat dive. I hope this helps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Socref124 Posted January 24, 2010 #3 Share Posted January 24, 2010 I agree with the previous post. St Maarten is not as good as St Thomas. We did Coki Beach Club in St Thomas and had 2 great dives. We are going back in Nov on the DREAM and will be going back to Coki Beach Club.:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bruce-r Posted January 24, 2010 #4 Share Posted January 24, 2010 I would book independently. If you want a beach dive I would suggest Coki dive club at coki beach. Im sure Bruce will pipe in sometime and he recommends Admirality dive for a boat dive. I hope this helps. Bruce has been diving both ports. St. Thomas would definitely be his choice. He also like http://www.admiraltydive.com for boat dives. http://www.cokidive.com is a good choice for an inexpensive shore dive. In St. Maarten I'd either taxi to Orient Beach or spend some time at the beach at the end of the International Airport runway and watch the big planes land.

Sunbreez Posted February 4, 2010 #5 Share Posted February 4, 2010 I agree, St. Thomas is more preferrable than St. Marteen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Palmetto_state Posted March 3, 2010 Author #6 Share Posted March 3, 2010 Thanks for the advice, we were thinking about diving in St. Maarten and going to the bay in St. Thomas. We have actually not dived in either location so we wouldn't be able to compare. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
