Did a few days of boat diving out of a resort on the St. Kitts beach followed by a week on a liveaboard that started at St. Kitts, included Saba Island, and ended at St. Martin. Over the couple of weeks I kept searching for squid with no luck. About 65 minutes into the last night dive I spotted one in the distance coming my way! As I was stationary it swam straight at me and smacked me in the face! A squid head butt! Posted Image

What did you think of the diving from St. Kitts proper? Looking at a Southern Caribbean cruise and figuring out which islands we are looking at for diving vs surface activities..

I didn't think the Leeward Islands were considered a southern route.

Traditional Southern Caribbean out of Puerto Rico is considered the islands between Barbados and St. Thomas. Since then, they have added cruises going further south to places like Dominica, Grenada and the Dutch Antilles.
