Jane sea is a cool site, there were some large barracuda there when I was there over the summer. I think we did Barcadera reef as our second when I did that last year, though I prefer harbor reef. Did you guys get the flying fish escort on the way out and back? Evette, Sara, Anthony or Anime as your divemaster?

Was there a cruise ship in town when you had so many people on the Antilla dive? I don't think I've ever had more than 6-8 on any dive I've done with them. It can be a zoo when you have the snorkelers, divers and the glass bottom boat all tooling around at the same time. There is usually an orange frogfish on one of the masts, it hangs out on the tube sponges.
