Fermin our beloved Boat Captain

Saturday, March 10th, 2012 Posted in Luna Blog | Comments Off

Sad news for all who knew and loved our beloved Captain Fermin. On March 2, Fermin was killed instantly in a tragic traffic accident.

It is with a very heavy heart that we report this terrible tragedy.

Fermin left behind a loving wife, Rita and wonderful children Harvey and Kimberly. Although we will miss Fermin dearly, we will all remember his smile, his joking, laughing, friendship, and of course his great skill as a dive-boat captain.

Anyone interested in providing financial support to his family may do so through the resort or dive shop. Any contribution, no matter how small would be greatly appreciated.

Please honor his memory by remembering the good times and his smiling face.

God bless,

Adam Baxter, Dive Master / Instructor

This is a great photo of the reflection of the water and palm tree onto one of the windows of a Beach Room at Luna Beach Resort.   This proves how close to the water your room is from the water’s edge.

Congrats to Paula – our latest Open Water diver – for her first dive as a certified diver today. Her and her son Ivan were greeted by a very friendly Hawksbill Sea Turtle, a pair of White Spotted Filefish, a Black Grouper at a cleaning station, and a massive school of Creole Wrasse! Just another day in paradise.

We want you to know that when you come to dive with us at Luna Beach Resort, our main concern is your safety and then we will make sure everything is convenient and comfortable for you.

We will make sure you are in safe hands and we have all safety measures in play.  Our guides will be keep watch of you in our small groups of no more than 6, and show you things you never would have seen without them.

With our LARGE Dive Center you will not feel crowded or uncomfortable, we have a large dry room that is very secure.  The rinse tank and shower is very convenient to all of this area.  We have all of the newest rental equipment and we make sure everything is serviced at all times.  If you are taking a class the class room is large and airy, so you will  be able to concentrate on the course with no distractions.

On our boats you will not be crowded, there is room for everyone and with our boat being extra wide you will not be stepping on each others fins.  The short walk from the dive Center to our private dock where the boat is, is less then 30 seconds away.  So you don’t have to worry about a long hike or swim to the boat.

Come see for yourself how enjoyable it is to Dive with Luna Beach Resort.
