So here's the scoop...basically I was planning a trip to Bonaire next summer. I may have to "settle for less" because I've decided to attend paramedic school while I'm starting at UC Davis this fall because my course load is light, it's all lower division, and the classes themselves are basic (accounting, intro to computers, business law). So I'm probably going to be spending too much money on p-school since it's $8,750 to afford Bonaire next summer. I figure I'll probably at least be able to afford going to the Florida Keys.
My questions are as follows:
1) What Key would you recommend, Key Largo?
2) How would you book the trip? Find an all-inclusive deal, do it piecemeal, etc.? How?
3) What are your recommendations on dive ops?
4) Is shore diving an option there? I've heard not, will I be restricted to boat diving?
5) What sites would you use to book the trip?
6) Lastly, would you recommend a different location for a moderately-priced vacation? I'd like to do some diving outside of California, preferably tropical, so I'm just figuring Florida Keys will be slightly cheaper than Hawaii, and from what I hear, better diving. Thanks in advance guys!
