    Hi, I'll be heading back to Bonaire in 6 or so weeks with my family, staying at the Divi. Crazy question...Do I need to book boat dives with them ahead of time or can I arrange it when we get there? We'll have three divers and two will be looking to do a refresher course. The three of us...

    El Cantil condo report

    We’ll be doing the same (El Cantil and Blue XT~Sea) the end of May, Can’t Wait!!! I have some questions about the dive gear storage area that I’ve been meaning to post but since you are there now I might as well ask here. How big are they, can you fit all of your gear in them or just the...

    Torn between Fifi and Provo Turtle Divers

    I went with a small group in Nov 05 and dove with Caicos Adventures and we had an excellent time. I think they will definitely meet all of your requirements; fun, very good crew, keeps your gear overnight, will let your group go on your own, will not limit bottom times… One diver (a...

    Aruba Dive OP Decision

    Yep, that's me...thank you...it is a lot of fun playing those 80's songs. We are probably going to be diving 4-5 days. It's such a pain to bring your gear back to your hotel every day and not have a facility to rinse and hang/store everything properly. I've got no problem taking care of my...

    Aruba Dive OP Decision

    I am going to Aruba this spring and am looking for a dive op. I have read a lot of positive comments on both Dive Aruba and Native Divers; these two seem to fit the profile I am looking for. Have any of you used both op’s and can offer comments to help me decide? Thanks, Lee

    Questions for Provo Vets

    Hi All, I have planned a trip to Provo for early November and my parents are coming along with my wife and I. My mother tends to be a nervous Nellie about traveling and is already concerned about this that and the other, once she gets to the destination she’s fine. I can usually answer...

    Cozumel Trip Report, January 8-16

    This was our first trip to Cozumel, along with a group of 22 (12 of which are divers). We had a perfect week of weather as far as I am concerned. For the most part the weather was partly to mostly sunny mid 70’s – mid 80’s. It rained hard a couple of times overnight and a quick shower one...

    Aruba - dive operaqtor that will leave us alone

    My Wife and I dove With Dive Aruba 2 years ago and had a very good experience. They had one small boat with a single captain/dive master to take out small groups of 4 - 6 divers. It had the feel of a private boat with personalized service, very nice people. All of the diving was done just...

    Is St. Maarten worth diving????

    Hi Scotty, We were in St.Maarten diving this past May. We dove with Dive Safaris out of Philipsburg. The diving is similar to what you would see in Grand Bahama or maybe a bit more like Aruba, with more seas and current. I wouldn't plan a "Dive" trip to St. Maarten. We were there for a...
