I have about 25 dives logged in Aruba, all with Red Sail. As much as I like the people there, I have hit all of the sites that they do regularly and would like to try someone different for most of my diving on this trip. I will still probably dive with them once or twice if I can hit the sites I want.

I have searched and the best topic I found had not had a response in nearly two years. So my questions are:
1. Who is a reputable dive operator?
2. That offers dives not offered by Red Sail?
3. At good prices?

I have my OW and AOW and will probably do my Nitrox course before leaving. I have my own gear, though I will have to pick up some new toys if I wanted to do nitrox.

Chadd, for what you are looking for I would suggest JADS http://www.jadsaruba.com/. They are next to Baby beach. I understand they do a lot of dives at that end of the island, including shore dives.

http://www.tripadvisor.com/Attraction_Review-g147251-d673424-Reviews-JADS_Dive_Center-San_Nicolas_Aruba.html Consistantly excellent reviews, they must be doing something right. I had been looking forward to trying them myself, but just had my diving put to an end for medical reasons.
