green_frog 00:47 UTC 01 Aug 2008 | Hi All, I'm staying at the Crusoes Resort on the Coral Coast and soon I'll be moving to either the Uprising resort towards Pacific Harbour or the Mango Bay resort. Deciding factor may be that the Mango Bay resort only dives on the local reef and the Uprising dive in the Beqa Passage/Lagoon. I have asked around so far and got ambiguous/unhelpful responses as to which one is 'better'. I think I'd rather stay at Mango Bay Resort but if the diving is significantly better at Beqa then I'd rather stay at Uprising and have access to Beqa. Can anyone please tell me whether the diving in Beqa is that much better to warrant staying at a second choice resort????? Very much appreciated. |
