    Diving in San Andres Island, Colombia (Video + Pictures)

    Thanks for fixing the video, now I am not sure if this belongs in South America or Central America. Colombia is a South American country but I just realized that San Andres is located off the coast of Nicaragua although Colombia does own the island.

    Diving in San Andres Island, Colombia (Video + Pictures)

    My wife and I went diving in San Andres, Colombia recently, enjoyed the diving there, the water was very clear and a lot of coral reef to see. The water wasn't too cold or hot, just a cool feeling. We saw puffer fish, a lionfish, an underwater eel and various other fish. We also hired a guide to...

The sound is pretty clear by shore but once you go any deeper, it's definitely lower visibility and the color of the water is a yellowish color compared to the gulfs blue color.

    Diving in Cuba

    It's not illegal to travel to Cuba, what is illegal is spending US currency in Cuba. If you can figure out how to visit Cuba without spending USD, then you would not be violating the law.

    Tuberculosis and diving?

    She's not 100 percent positive herself, she said she caught it from someone at school, it was when she was a child yes. She was on medication and "treated".

    Looking to get back into Scuba Diving

    Sure, I never got to the open water part of the test, and honestly at the time, I was a little scared to do the open water part as lakes didn't have as good of visibility. I live right near the gulf of Mexico here so water is pretty clear for the most part. What does the open water test...

    Looking to get back into Scuba Diving
