Holy Moly you have got to see the Caves in Abaco!

Just got back from Abaco, Bahamas after doing 5 days of CCR Cave dives, Side Mount Course and one day of Side Mount diving with Brian Kakuk. The Caves are outstandingly pristene, decorated and beautiful and Brian does a great job as a guide and instructor. This location needs to be on your list.

My dive buddy has posted a trip report on Rebreather World and he will be attaching the video shortly.

Here is a link to make it easy for you to find it if you wish.

I should have mugged you when you were in my garage. That way I could have taken your spot on that trip. :smt102

Hi, amazing video indeed!

I hope I am not hijacking the thread - could you please give us some info about the accommodations - is there a "diver friendly" place to stay, car and tanks rentals, does one have to hire a guide to dive the caves etc.?

Fantastic video.....It's on my list now :)

Arek has it correct. Brian K is the one to contact and answer all your questions. You would also want to consider taking a side mount course from him. Aside from being one of the most experienced instructor in side mount, having written the IANTD manual it will also allow you to see some caves that are even more spectacular than on the video.
