About

Our Team

Al Curry
Owner/partner who has a passion for the Ocean, coral reefs, marine life, underwater photography and preserving the incredible marine environment in South Eleuthera. Al is a PADI instructor who loves to teach, especially young people. He came to Eleuthera to retire and ended up owning a scuba diving and deep sea business. He is out on dives at least 150 days a year, assisting Daryl with groups of divers or teaching. With his new business, he loves going to the “office” and especially exploring for new dive sites and diving opportunities.

Chad Melton
Owner/partner and deep sea fishing expert. You can always tell someone’s passion by asking them, “Tomorrow when you get up, you can only do one thing, what would you do?” Answer without hesitation, deep sea fishing. Chad goes out on a lot of our fishing charters just to make sure the captain and mate are doing their job to his impressive standards, and always trying to help improve their skills for deep sea fishing. But he also spends a lot of time with the guests answering questions about bait or lure selection, rod and reels used and why, how to fish depending what species you want to target (Marlin is different from Mahi-Mahi or Wahoo), what to do when you have a hook up and how to land the fish. It’s like going to class out on the water, he will feed you as much information and knowledge as you can handle.

Daryl Miller
Born and raised in Wemyss Bight, a settlement next to Davis Harbour. Daryl is both a boat captain and PADI Diver Master. Daryl has primary responsibility for running the shop at Davis Harbour and runs both scuba diving trips and deep sea fishing charters. Daryl has been with Ocean Fox Cotton Bay since it opened in July 2006. He has been diving most of his life and has excellent eyes to spot those marine creatures most of us would swim right past without seeing; want to know about a certain marine creatures behavior, just ask. On fishing, when it is slow Daryl will remind you there is a reason they call it fishing and not catching, but if the fish are out there Daryl can find them, then you have to get them to the boat.

“Anderson”
is our primary dive mate; he lives in Deep Creek a few miles from the marina. He goes by his last name because he is apparently not fond of his first name. He is soft spoken, you have to ask him a question to get him to talk, but is very knowledgeable about scuba diving (but does not dive himself) and never drinks. So we sometimes refer to him as Captain Rummy.

Elroy Anderson
He is our boat captain, who also lives in Deep Creek (yes he and Anderson are brothers) when Daryl has another trip, we have double trips or Daryl is off. Elroy likes to talk, but as he is captain you have to go up on the bridge while he is driving; he will talk to you about diving, fishing, where you are geographically, how the GPS navigation system works or just about anything else you want to talk about
