My wife, daughter, and I will be diving in Tobago in early July.  We are
 advanced divers with experience under diverse conditions, and are
hoping to see some of the more interesting/challenging dive sites.  I'm
interested in hearing about any experiences people might have with the
island and/or particular dive operators.

Speyside has the best diving on the island.  however, the problem with
Tobago is that it is close to Venezula and the viz can be quite bad
depending on which way the Oronoco Flow is flowing.  Rich nutrients
bring in all the abundant fish life, but, the viz can really get bad.
I have been there a couple of times.  16 months ago I was in Speyside,
viz was poor and the current ripping.  Also ran into a heavy down
current. Time before that it was calm, viz was good and no currents up,
down or sideways. So, check with your operator, some months it is
better to dive the northside of the island (try around the 2 sisters
islands)

I've dived all up and down that outer arc of the Caribbean that fronts the
Atlantic, from Trinidad/Tobago northwards.  Its the weaker part of the
Caribbean for diving.  I guess you could say it is a place to go diving when
you've been all over the Caribbean and have run out of places to dive.
