    GoPro Hero 8 Black — Red Filters?

    I use the Polar Pro red filter with my GP 8 with Final Cut Pro in post. On these particular dives, I didn't have my light available.

    Month long Thailand vacation during coronavirus outbreak

    I was in Thailand solo for a month during the Coronavirus outbreak in Feb/Mar 2020. China had a lockdown going on and the crowds were smaller than normal. During my time in Phi Phi and Koh Tao, I would often be the only fun diver among the group while the others were going through their open...

    Cozumel trip video / Scuba Club

    I'm sure one day it will be required to have some type of training or license to purchase one. For any yahoo to buy one off the shelf and harass beach goers or violate people's privacy is a constant concern and problem. I'm licensed and have experience for over 10+ years in the UAV/C-UAV...

    Cozumel trip video / Scuba Club

    If it wasn't for a couple people splitting the cost, I would have followed your lead. I saw the other rental places while walking around I would have went with if I was solo. It's a pain in the @ to find parking sometimes.

    Cozumel trip video / Scuba Club

    Where do you see Cozumel considered a no-fly zone? I've checked the no-fly zones, I know where they are not allowed. I stay away from airports and over people. If there's signs posted, it's observed. Vigente la regulación sobre uso de aeronaves no tripuladas (drones), para su operación segura |...

    Cozumel trip video / Scuba Club

    Yes, we rented it for about $75/day. They (Alamo) try and get you for additional insurance that added up to around $200 for full coverage. I believe we got limited coverage for around $110/day.

    Cozumel trip video / Scuba Club

    The food was surprisingly pretty good. Breakfast was a buffet with many options and fruits. Lunch and dinner was normally 3 choices of meals. (chicken, veggie, fish or beef combos)

    Cozumel trip video / Scuba Club

    I finally made it to Cozumel on a 5 day trip to check out the island and do 6 dives (2x day). A friend set us up at Scuba Club on a dive package which included 3 meals a day and 3 days of diving. Shore dives are free (excluding scuba rental fees) and any alcohol, or meals not included in the...

    Boracay Diving

    Listen to the above advice. After living on Boracay for over a year, these replies pretty much sum it up.

    Reasonable transportation from Manila to Puerto Galera/Sabang

    I used Ferdie's service for a couple years now. Private van. Can't remember the prices. A few of us chipped in and got pretty drunk on the way to the port. Very reliable dudes. +639053366869 mobile

    Crown of Thorns Sea Star!

    They have programs each year in Boracay in which alot of diveshops take place in. We offered free diving to customers who wanted to help us that day. The news was there covering the events, then party time afterwards. Good times. (They burned then buried the stars.)

    Pristine Reefs of Southern Mindanao

    Thanks WWD..... Reading the boards here make me want to check out the place. Like Neon was saying, the news throws around words like it is a constant war zone. I live in the war zones that the media loves to over hype. It's 85% b.s. (Also, after spending a year in Boracay, I forgot what it was...

    Taking regs, computer etc...through security at airport

    I have taken dive gear thru the Baghdad Airport on a couple R&R's. It wasn't as much of a security incident as you would think. Most of them don't know what scuba diving is when you try and explain it to them. This was their look for real --> :confused: Have you ever played that game charades?
