Hey, after much consideration, I think I have decided on Utila for a first diving trip.
I plan to do the OW certification, which I read takes about 3-4 days. I feel that if I am paying for the plane ticket down there, I should spend more time there then that. Currently, I am aiming for around 8-10 days in late May.
What is the next step after OW? Would I want to start working on the next level of certification? Just do some recreational dives? What would be the costs of these?
I guess what I really want to know is will have things to do as a beginner diver after the OW certification? Or will I get bored on such a dive-centric island? What is the optimal amount of time? Know of any day trips near Utila?
Thanks!
