during my last visit to AC, it seemed as though the Dive Masters all seemed to focus on the female scuba divers who were alone? a friend of mine was approached on many occaisions for 'dates' Im asking now because a co-worker is going to let her 20 year old daughter and friends go to the caye alone- is this safe?

Yes...safe. Guys here are as flirty as guys anywhere else.

last trip I had a DM ask me to take him home to us....

They'll be fine, sockpuppet!

You can expect gentle low-key flirtation sometimes. Anything more you should complain, but I would be very surprised if you have anything to complain about.

all the dive masters were perfect gentlemen at Patojo's. We had a young girl getting certified and Guillarmo could not have been anymore of a gentleman. I would definitely trust my daughter (26)with them and know that she would be treated respectfully. My 10 yr old is getting certified with them this month can't say enough wonderful things.

Sue - Did they tell you Guillarmo's nick-name?

he did not say I can only comment on observations we had

so true!
and the girls will be fine... traveling there on my own being young and female i was fine! yes the guys flirted but that's anywhere in the caribbean even in the states and canada!
