Great Discovery SCUBA Dives

While staying a Secret Harbour Resort, I scheduled the Discovery SCUBA dive for my 14-yr old daughter who had never done SCUBA. I am a PADI advanced diver and wanted to share SCUBA with her. She had a great shore Discovery instruction dive with Mandi.
After the shore dive, I scheduled a 2-tank boat dive for both of us the next day. We were accompanied by dive instructor Anardo. He was awesome! He held my daughter's hand underwater for the first 10 minutes to make sure she was comfortable while guiding her around to see amazing sea life. He treated her like a loving father. He picked up a brittle starfish and let her hold it. He showed her how the sea anemone would suck up into their shell when you put your finger in front of them. He guided her up to within 4-ft of a nurse shark sleeping on the sea floor and could have gotten closer if my daughter hadn't gotten nervous. Lol. She did not realize nurse sharks are gentle creatures. We also saw a sea turtle and perhaps the largest sting ray I've ever seen with a companion Cobia that followed it everywhere.
The dives with Anardo and Aqua Action were by far my daughter's favorite activities that we did during our week on St. Thomas and St. John!

Very enjoyable, relaxed open diving experience. When meeting the wife of the dive shop owners, she told her story of how they left Ohio on a lark and ended up in St. Thomas. Her 20-year-old note to her husband was tacked to the wall. The DM was Jared, a New Orleans transplant, and the captain was from Juniper, Florida. With a limited number of divers, Jared could guide us through six fun dives effortlessly but safely. While not Bonaire or Cozumel, they made the best of St. Thomas' dive spots.
