Hi there,

I have to comment on the Barracuda Diving Centre. We booked with them trip at 4 pm and their boat came 4.30 pm, not fueled up and with no equipment on board. We were really disappointed and wanted to cancel the trip. The company does not bother to refund the trip by not providing any service after we canceled it due to all these serious defects.
Just a warning for people about unreliable services of Barracuda
