With recent manta sitings being low at Garden Eel Cove lately, there have been many nights with 20 or more boats at the Sheraton. That's a lot of boat traffic. Be safe and have fun.

It may be one of the shortest commercial runways in the world...but most dangerous? That's ridiculous. If you have concerns you can take a ferry from St Martin. But we found the flight gorgeous and the landing and take off part of the amazing Saba experience.

Might be planning a Dumaguete week and Bohol liveaboard week but only available in October. Is that too risky as far as the weather/season? Also, could the Bohol area and an excursion to see thresher sharks be combined or are the areas too far apart? Thanks!

Sounds great!

Would you guys hesitate to visit Little Cayman in the first couple of weeks in November? Planning around potential hurricanes isn't possible..I know, I know. Just looking for feedback. (I'm also considering Cozumel in November.)

From Divi, can you walk to a grocery store/market/convenience store?

More great info. Much appreciated.

Thanks guys! This is very helpful. I think Divi suits our group just fine.

darook...we'd probably be there last week in October. Is that cruise ship time?

I've got a group of 14-20 divers going to Bonaire next fall. I'm thinking of steering them to Divi. About half of them will be content to do a couple of boat dives in the morning and maybe a dive from the dock in the afternoon...some of them will dive a ton from the dock...and a few would rent...

I remember about 15 years ago, Kona had an opportunity to get a huge ship named the Mauna Kea sunk for diving. A handful of locals stopped it. Said the wreck would poison the keiki who swim in Kona waters. Probably same few people who said mooring balls lead to sexually transmitted disease (I...

Thanks to all. It's great to know that a cruise ship would not be too much of an issue.

Thanks! That helps to know.

From what I can tell, there aren't any cruise ships in port in July 2015 (until 7/30). Can anyone confirm? I'd like to avoid if possible.

Wow. You have a lot of time on your hands.

The e-learning replaces purchasing the book and DVD. PADI splits the e-learning fee with the dive shop. So the dive shop doesn't really lose anything. It ends up being about the same profit as selling the book and DVD. And, as a side note, the $120 was increased to $138 some time ago. By...

THANK YOU ALL! This information is very helpful and has gotten me started in the right direction for some Fiji plans.

Thanks to all! cbm32....I am not only planning for myself, but also a group of friends with varied tastes and budgets, which makes it difficult as you can imagine. What makes a resort fabulous for me is a beautiful beach and grounds, super cute/stylish bures, good food, and great service...

I'm in the very beginning stages of researching Fiji. Looking for the most spectacular diving (I know there's a lot!), staying at a fabulous resort, and boat rides that are not terribly long. So what is your dream trip to Fiji?! And what month would you go? Thanks so much! Cuddlefish
