Perhaps a "silly" question, but is scuba diving expensive in Central/South America?
I plan to travel around Central and South America for at least 6 months next year. One of the things I'd like to do there is doing a LOT of scuba diving. Since I should work really hard before I can go on this trip, I kind of want to make some calculations of how much all this is going to cost me and for how long I should work until I have made this money for travelling.
I consider one dive that costs 40 US dollars/40 Euro's as "expensive" (this is even the cheapest dive I ever made - I'm a student so can't afford much these days!).
How much approximately would diving cost in Central/South America - if you rent ALL the gear - per dive?
I haven't made up my mind yet about where exactly I want to go. I am currently thinking of Ecuador, Peru, Costa Rica and some countries bordering these countries.
Perhaps people who have been in Central/South America can let me know where they dove (or dived?) and what they approx. paid for it?
Thanks a lot for any info!
