I'm a new diver and am looking to take a dive vacation in the Caribbean in August. Am thinking about Belize because they seem to have a great set up; but I'm afraid my late August/early September time frame puts me right in the middle of hurricane season. Also, I'm VERY nervous in choppy water. It takes me ten minutes to submerge. (Yikes!) So, I'd like some place warm and calm. Should I just put off my trip until January? (High season) Please help 'cause I've got to decide soon. Thanks! By the way, this is a great site/community
