    Dive ops: pimping vs legitimate info

    I'm obviously very late to this party (maybe it's already over?), but will throw in my two cents anyway. I've visited Cozumel (on a multi day stay) a grand total of one time. And my family and I used a grand total of one dive op while we were there. I did a lot of research here and in...

    Boynton Beach Dive Boats

    My two favorites are Underwater Explorers and Dive Charters International. I used DCI exclusively for years, and was a loyal customer. I still think that it is a top notch operation. That is, until Underwater Explorers came on the scene... The guy that owns and runs Underwater Explorers is a...

    Divemaster Tipping

    I know what boat she works on - it's my favorite charter on the east coast, and I was on it this past weekend. Like I said, I wasn't attempting to challenge her statement, I just thought - especially with some of the new divers viewing and participating in this thread, that it might be a good...

    Divemaster Tipping

    Please don't read anything into my question as I'm not challenging any part of the above statement, but as a "non-professional" member of the diving public it would interesting to hear from someone that does work in the industry, particularly locally, as in south/central Florida, how they define...

    The Boynton Dive Chronicles (new and improved)

    Along with my wife and two sons, and two other divers (Rick and Patrick) I went out on the Explorer this morning. Had a problem with my camera's battery charger last night, so no pictures from me this time around. On our way down to Boynton, we noted that the big dive flag at Diver's Direct was...

    Maybe it's a snare camoflauged to look like a camera!

    U/W Pics from my recent trip to Cozumel

    In case anyone would like to see them that doesn't frequent the Cozumel board... There are also some other albums from the same trip - one about our condo, one about our trip to the mainland to see Mayan ruins, one about being out and about on the island - I'm sure if you're interested you...

    Trip Report June 20-30

    Our family of four went to Cozumel from June 20-30. We rented a car from ISIS, stayed at a condo at Residencias Reef, and ate all over the island. If you'd like more details on the non-diving aspects of the trip PM me and I can send you a link to a rather long trip report I've posted on a...

    Current (mid-June) water conditions?

    No - I don't know what the deal with that is - we're scheduled to arrive at 2:22PM on Friday. Thanks for the temp report.

    Current (mid-June) water conditions?

    I know - this is a very fluid thing ( pun intended! ), but here we are - three days away from our first non-cruise trip to Cozumel, and I'm going freakin' NUTS! So...can anyone that's either on island, or has been there very recently let me know more or less what the water temps, seas, and...

    The sharks have arrived! In force!

    What is the timeline for this trip (i.e. when does it leave, return, etc.)? R/T from Playa - is that Playa Del Carmen? Is this practical to do as a day trip from Cozumel?

    Economy affect your dive travel plans?

    Fortunately the air fare for both trips I have scheduled for this year were bought and paid for long ago. This time next year we'll be getting ready to send our oldest son to college, so vacation travel was likely out anyway. Looks like we'll be doing a lot more local diving next year (and...

    Average prices for 2 tank boat dives...

    We'll be staying at the Residencias Reef condos, so that equates to the Wyndham on Christi's list if I'm not mistaken. We will be diving seven days. To this point, only my wife and I have ever dove in Cozumel. Twice, both times were when we were cruise ship passengers. Each time we did...
