Beast and I would love to have you join us on our annual trip to CCV. If you want a trip that focuses on diving, this is the place. Two vertical walls, a shipwreck, reefs and grass flats make up the Front Yard of CCV and you haven’t even set foot on a boat yet. We enjoy this even more when we can include our friends. If you aren’t a friend now, you will be!
Here are some basic details:
Date: May 13-20, 2006, Sat. to Sat. Two weeks are available, extended to May 27.
Location: CoCo View Resort, Roatan, Honduras
Price: $1630 per person for Cabanas and Ocean View rooms. Price includes all fees and taxes, non-stop round trip airfare from Houston to Roatan. If you need to fly into Houston, I can arrange the additional flights and that cost will be added. We're using Continental again because of the more friendly dive schedule. Earlier arrival, later departure. First-timers can complete the orientation and dive the afternoon we arrive.
Deposit: $150 per person deposit is required. It is non-refundable unless I can fill your spot. All balances are due Feb. 1st.
Accommodations: Trip is full! Join us for our 2007 trip, May 26-June 2 - June 9, 2007.
Bungalow (4 rooms) Over the water duplex seperate from the other rooms for a little more privacy. Rooms A and C have one King bed. Rooms B and D have two Double beds.
Cabana (12 rooms) Over-water quadruplex with private porch, 2 Double beds.
Oceanfront (9 rooms): Ocean front rooms with private porch or balcony. 6 rooms with 1 Twin and 1 Double, 3 rooms 1 King.
This is an all-inclusive resort. All food and lodging is included. Since I’ve included all fees and taxes in the price, the only expenses you’ll have is a $32 departure and security tax, $2 per day chamber tax is optional but highly recommended, any tabs (dive shop, gift shop, bar, extra activities, etc).
The price also includes unlimited air, unlimited shore diving available 24/7. There are two 2-tank (4 dives) boat dives a day. Nitrox is available for $6 per tank or you can buy the unlimited package for $100. (break even point is 16 dives)
The Diving:
I think the diving is some of the best I’ve ever had. I love the walls and low to no currents. If you are a photographer, you'll be in Heaven! The viz can vary from 80-100+ ft. Of all the dive sites, and there are lots of great ones, I love the photography in the Front Yard. It’s inside a protected natural channel between two 100+ foot barrier reef walls. I’ve seen everything from huge Manta Rays, to tiny Blennies, large Green Morays to tiny Juv. Drums, Large Basket Stars to small Hermit Crabs, all within walking/wading distance from our bungalow. And the Prince Albert and Mr. Bud ship wrecks are home to so many critters, too many to name. Calvin's Crack, Menagorea, Doc's Place...too many great sites to mention. This will be my 9th trip and I always find things and places I've never seen.
As I mentioned, shore diving is unlimited, you can go anytime you feel like it. CCV treats you as a resonsible adult, and expects you to act like one, so you have alot of freedom to dive as you like. If you want to dive after 11pm, just tell the night DM, grab a tank, the safety strobe, and go. As long as you follow the set of CCV safety rules, you'll have no problems. In the past, we've done as many as 30-35 dives in the 5 day dive span. Or if you like only a couple of dives a day and spend the rest swinging in a hammock, drinking Monkey LaLa's...you'll get no pressure.
CCV is not a fancy resort. If you need a nightlife other than what you can make yourself, CCV may not be for you. There are off island excursions planned almost every day if you want to do more than diving. But if you want a place that was built FOR divers BY divers, where diving is the major activity, then CCV just may become your home away from home, too.
If you have any questions, please PM me. I know I have probably left out something!
