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. For more info on St Kitts Diving see http://www.kennethsdivecenter.com/ Worthy of note: Fumeroles; Turtles; Eel worms |
