Scuba Diving Locations~~~ ~~ ~

St Kitts - Caribbean   (Water temperature ~30șC : Visibility 8-25m)

General Comments: Excellent location for diving, however unable to hire or buy any equipment, books or maps, except for essentials. Plenty to see on land - a pretty undeveloped island - the locals are friendly & helpful. Visibility reduced a few days after a tropical storm nearby.
