February 2009 fantastic dive holiday. saw green moray swimming, another part of our team saw 23 dophins with babys swimming on the west wall. lots of healthy coral and such a dence array of coral types and fish on every dive/ would definitely recommend. karibe was great. owner Werner is very flexible and accommodating.

December 2006 Can't praise Werner of Karibik enough. Considerate, Consiencious, Safe. The best price for diving in the Carribbean, but that was mor than made up for by what we spent on emeralds.

April 2006 Diving with Werner at Karibik Divers was pure pleasure...laid back, but professional. San Andreas was like Cozumel 20 years ago!

November 2001 Like previous comments. because of it's conenction to Colombia it is a rather forgotten island. Did a shore dive, and a boat dive, both beeing top notch. The shore dive fitted what was said earlier about beeing shallow and long +60 min The boat dive was shorter but deeper (30 m) Prevoius review summs it up nicely The dive center and my 'guide' from medellin was very non latino/carribbean and very professional compared to what I have seen in Colombia mainland. /Dan

December 2004 The service on this island is wonderful and the island citizen are fantastic! Dove Karibik divers, and had the best experience of my dive career with Werner. Very good service and extremely personal,was like diving with a friend.

March 2005 Laid back, not overdeveloped. Friendly natives and great food - if you like lobster and shrimp. I'll be back.

February 2005 $700.00 all-inclusive and only $25.00 for 2 tank dives that included lunch...well worth more than that...the locals were fantastic ! Totally uncomercialized and wht an island should be.

December 2004 My wife and I went in 2003, then we went with our 3 kids, 26,23 & 21 who are all divers the same week in 2004. We went the 2nd week of December. We get an all inclusive 4* resort including taxes for about $800. CDN. We negotiated our dive prices and ended up about $25.CDN per tank. There would just be us and maybe 2 others on the boat and it would be the only dive boat in sight. The night dive lasted 11/2 hours and was great! Did 7 dives, reefs, wrecks and walls. Schools of young cudas on every dive. Island people are great!
