    Skip diving in Cancun or what?

    Mike, I have watched you talk bad and complain about Isla Mujeres diving on here for years. If you do not like the Isla diving you won't like Cancun diving, it is the same. I am sure you will not be happy with the diving. Please do not go diving here, then we will not have to listen to you bitch...

    Isla Mujeres- AOW certification

    Gilberto at Carey scuba is great. My wife and I took our rescue with Gilberto. He is a very good instructor, knowledgeable and patient. Isla is a great place and there are some awesome dive sites. I enjoy the pace and there are not the crowds of Cozumel. We just got back from 3 weeks and are...

    Recommended Whale Shark Tour Operators & Dive Shops in Isla Mujeres?

    I have dove with Enrique for 8 years. He is the best guide on Isla Mujeres. I highly recommend him for advance / adventure diving. If you are a beginner and need someone to watch you all the time, he is not the guide for you. But he always delivers unique adventure dives and I will continue to...

    Sleeping Shark Cave - Isla Mujeres

    The reason there are so few sharks is because of fishermen and long lines, just like every where else in the world. I have seen video from 30 years ago, shot by Ramon Bravo, a legend on Isla. There were Tiger sharks in the cave back then. My friends have told me the use to be tiger, hammerhead...

    Sleeping Shark Cave - Isla Mujeres

    We have been down diving for a few weeks and have dove Sleeping Shark Cave probably 50 times over the last 6 years. Sometimes there might be a nurse shark but never any real sharks. 3 Days ago we dove there and there was a big bull shark "sleeping" in the cave, maybe 9 foot long. I swam up...

    Arrowsmith

    We went 2 years ago with local fishermen, they know the spots. These guys are spear fishermen and knew many good spots. We marker the spots with GPS so this year we did not use them. My good friend Enrique, who owns Enrique's Unique Dives, sets the trip up for us. There is another place we go...

    Went diving 27 miles SE off the coast of Isla Mujeres to a place called Arrowsmith. 3 dives, 100 feet, ripping currents, tons of fish, turtles, couple of sharks, 1 dolphin and lots of huge lobsters. This is my big adventure dive and it was awesome. Tonda, Enrique and me. I am lucky that Tonda...

    Manta Ray at Sleeping Shark Cave

    We dove the Sleeping Shark cave off the coast of Isla Mujeres this morning. I have dove 350 times around Isla but never have seen a Manta Ray. We were at 60 feet following a ledge that leads to the cave ( or more like swim through ). I looked up and about 20 feet in front of me was a Manta Ray...

    Isla Mujeres and Eagle Rays

    Sound like you had fun and had some good dives. Did you find that grouper or did you leave him for me? We are going down the end of May for 16 days. I wish it was the end on May now.....

    Isla Mujeres & Enrique's Unique Diving

    Sounds like you had a great time. It is hard to get out to where you wanted, I have only been once, it was great. We are heading to Aruba for 10 days in 1 month. Tonda won free hotels, so we can not pass it up. We will be down on Isla in December. Come on down and let dive. Kevin

    Isla Mujeres & Harrowsmith

    Hey Ben, It was cold, 62 degrees F. My wife is still bitching about how cold it was. All the dives we have done this trip had thermalclin. But we loved the dives. 2 more dive days, then back home to Dallas.

    Isla Mujeres & Harrowsmith

    We made it out to Picos today. Saw hundreds of whale sharks on the way out. Boats ride was about 1 hour 45 minutes. On the way down, thermalclin about 60 feet down, soup for the next 50 feet and then we saw the bottom at 160. Found the cave, swam in, saw a black tip and then a bull. So many big...

    Isla Mujeres & Harrowsmith

    Ben, you are correct, these are advanced dives, you and the boat crew need to know what they are doing. Most of the dive shop will not even consider taking any one. 3 years ago I heard about Arrowsmith and my good friend Kiki (Enrique's Unique Dives) was willing to arrange it, he grew up on...

    Isla Mujeres & Harrowsmith

    Hey Sammy, We are on Isla now, going to Picos (the Hills ) on Sunday. Hopefully we will find those hammerheads I have been looking for. Wish I was going to be there to go to Arrowsmith with you. We have been diving, spearfishing and lobstering just about everyday. We got 9 lobsters the other day...

    Isla Mujeres or Holbox for Whale Sharks?

    I would go to Isla Mujeres. I have been to both, Isla Holbox is nice, but there is no scuba there. The whale shark tours started at Holbox but now there are more guides for whale sharks on Isla Mujeres. Lots of people offer the whales shark tours. I go to Isla Mujeres 4-5 times a year and I...
