    Would you recommend Cozumel to two young adults?

    The better dives (generally) are on the south end of Cozumel (away from town) and it is great beginner or advanced dive trip. I have not been to Roatan yet, but here great stuff about down there as well. Put Bonaire on your list (after you've made a trip or two) also way awesome. then...

    Certified! Now what?

    I agree - just get some diving going! it's all good experience. Amy's Amoray has some good deals in Key Largo. West Palm is supposed to be good. then there's the whole Caribbean. Cozumel is a good one once you're comfortable with your buoyancy (and drift diving - it's actually pretty easy...

    Reasonable unlimited diving in the Caribbean?

    I did Buddy's in July. It is really nice. and Capt Don's is right next door. Good diving off the house reefs there. You can do it cheaper of course, but get what you can afford. Also skip dinner at Rains Fishes (used to be 'great') and just hit if for jazz and dessert. Try Bamboo (the...

    Planning a dive trip to Bonaire

    So who went to Kleine Bonaire (I've read there are some great spots on the outer side of the isle to dive, and snorkel. Are there any 'great' boat dives? or is one as well off to just hang and dive... (off the shore) esp. for night dives. Dr Rich - how was Washington-Slagbaii ? a don't...

    dive trip report: Key Largo - April 18-23, 2010

    I recently read about a tiger shark siting (Bahama's) and I thought those were Pacific fish as well. I've no huge interest to meet up with one! I dove those same dives out of Amy's in the Keys last summer. The wrecks were very cool. We saw some pretty good sized Moray's also... (and a few...

    Bay Islands or Playa del Carmen?

    Check out 'Barefoot Diver's' for Roatan and Utila. If you have two weeks, they have a smokin' deal where you can dive both islands for ~ $2500 (meals included, and ferry between the islands) I have not been yet, but when I go, I'll do it that way (I hope). I have heard the diving is...

    Funjet rep at Park Royal is Rude, Disrespectful and Abusive

    These vouchers and missing 'papers' seem to be part of the routine in these 'packages'. Sounds like the equivalent of a lost luggage odds (eventually, if you go on enough trips, you'll experience some excitement) My quick Cozumel story was at the Allegro a couple yrs ago (before it was...

    DIVING Amy's AMORAY IN KEY LARGO June 23rd

    Just about EVERY diver I have ever met has been friendly, yes!! great group of knuckleheads (right??) I am on a few forums for guitar (s), players, and collectors, etc. So I'm used to the format (I guess) I have been posting and checking out various threads. I suppose I'm just a bit...

    Never Trust Delta Airlines with your Cozumel Vacation!!!!!

    Hey Kwik 69, Try FAL (Frontier) out of Denver. They are awesome. I THINK they even fly to Mexico out of KC, no?? Delta was my ride when we were Atlanta dwellers, but no more. You make a GREAT POINT THOUGH. ALWAYS have a plan B (checked out) for any trip. esp. when alot of time/ $$$...

    Average salaries?

    Hey Epic, I perused the replies... and the 'results' appear to be: 1-3k/ mo. leaning toward the lean side. I think 'local' makes up for alot in this biz. If you're in the Caymans, or Aruba, (or Fiji) or whereever you 'love'. and you can make a living. I think that's the point. making...

    North Dakota Diver

    Are you diving up there? or flying to the Carribbean??? Diving anywhere is better than not diving, but the flight is also worth it! (I'm in Colorado myself - a pain to work the reverse tables, etc - and COLD water) I am considering a wreck dive in Lake Superior out of Munising, next time...

    Hi from the garden state

    Consider Cozumel - very affordable, GREAT diving, and isolated from the mainland (health hazards) Drive over to the East shore one day. There is a neat bar up on the hill (you'll see it) about 5 miles from the north end and major waves. Almost like Hawaii. I'm dying to get to Bonaire...

    Bull shark attacks man from Deerfield Beach

    Good catch (correction) FishEye. Yeah, ya mess with the Bull Shark, HORNS. I have heard the Keys have lots of Bulls, but it's not even listed on Franco's card (only the nurse shark) This will be my first visit to the Keys. I'm psyched!
