Hey all
Long time lurker, new poster here.
The SO and I are off to Playacar (hacienda vista real- any word on that place??) on a cheap deal in late March. There's a lot of great info here on the board, but i thought i'd post a few questions here.
What's the diving like in later March, what can I expect, or is it always great down there?!
It seems like the orange/green stripe vans are the best way to get from Cancun to PDC. Is that right (we'll have some stuff, after a few weeks of business travel, but no dive gear ) and will those vans get us to playacar? will the BUS get us to playacar? apparently, there's no hotel shuttle at HVR, and a taxi is like $75, right?
Can you guys recommend anyone to dive with in the area? Preferably who can hook me up with a pickup at the hotel in the AM? or is it close enough to walk to the docks? sealifedivers.com looks interesting, but pricey. i'd like to do two a day for five days, fingers crossed.
and i'll troll the boards, but any great, cheap places to hang out with interesting people would be appreciated. off the beaten path, please. i don't like tourists!
thanks all for your help
see you on the bottom!
