There is definitely a huge difference with brands of computers and how liberal they are. The aeris computers we use at Tranquility Bay give about 10 minutes more dive time on the average profile we are doing on a second dive compared to the Suunto. We have had a couple of guests put their...

Here are some of my suggestions for a diver wanting to dive the blue hole: do get some warm up dives in prior to the blue hole or/and take a refresher don't dive the day before choose a reputable operator check your equipment dive with a buddy (I usually tell couples to hold hands) be the last...

I'm not really supposed to toot our own horn but check us out on the North end of the island. www.tranquilitybayresort.com Although beware dining options are not the same as San Pedro town. Cheers, Carlos

Does anyone have any experience with selling gear from a resort or dive shop in that the manufacturer would actually send the gear to the person when they arrive at home? Living in a country with extreme customs and duty makes stocking a shop unprofitable/uncompetitive. As well with technology...

At Tranquility Bay we try to bring the guest in question with us when we pick up the tanks. However I have an analyzer on order that I expect any day now..... :-) Cheers, Carlos

Just for the record we have steel 100's at Tranquility Bay Resort. Unfortunately we do not service Mata Rocks as we are 12 miles north of town. Pristine diving without the crowds! :-) Cheers, Carlos

Sounds like sage advice to me, and yes both ops have a good reputation. Cheers, Carlos

Great Post. I think the diving here can be amazing, but each dive you do to the same sight can give you a totally different experience. If you only found the diving of Ambergris medium to Good I would suggest the blue hole trip. The blue hole is an interesting dive but some people don't like it...

You can also choose a resort like Tranquility Bay on the north end of Ambergris Caye where you can snorkel from shore and the diving is just a stone's throw away. This way you can snorkel with your gf while at the resort, dive and only be gone for your actual bottom time. Your surface interval's...

Diverrex We are a very small resort on the North side of Ambergris Caye. We are not typically known as a Dive Resort although we are PADI certified as one. We have our own compressor, tanks and rental gear. The diving is literally three minutes away from the resort and you spend your surface...

Peter I believe Diverrex was saying that they didn't care much about the weight and not "the care" of the bags themselves. They don't seem to follow their published weight limits at all. However, if your bag is excessively heavy it may come on a later flight. cheers, Carlos

Peter Could be, I didn't inquire as to if he would take divers he knew were good divers or not. It was just a casual conversation. cheers, Carlos

Just talked to my dive master and he says he won't take people to love tunnels. The reason is that it is very dark and you cannot see the exit. There is a cavern style opening that people tend to get "stuck" in. The reason is that the exit is low and people go up instead of following the...

When choosing a dive shop I think location is also a factor. Do you know where you will be staying? Cheers, Carlos

My favorites up in front of Tranquility Bay are Basil Jones Canyons and Cut, a couple of new ones that we have dubbed "The Chubb hole" and "TBR tunnels" then of course there is a wreck that we snorkel in just a few feet of water. Down where Elbert is M&M tunnels is an awesome dive. (I think on...

Speaking of Tranquility Bay Resort if you want a personnel experience that is secluded and laid back it is a very different option from the others! Cheers, Carlos Tranquility Bay Resort manager Tranquility Bay Resort, Snorkel From The Beach, PADI Certified Dive Resort | Ambergris Caye Dive Resort

I manage a resort on the north end of Ambergris Caye where you can snorkel from the beach. We have tours to Hol Chan marine reserve and even the great Blue Hole! The water is clear and the marine life is plentiful. We often even have manatee's swimming in the natural cut (Basil Jones) in the...

You may want to consider Tranquility Bay Resort - Ambergris Caye, Belize, Dive, Fish, Snorkel, Relax, Enjoy!! on the north end of Ambergris Caye. We are a very small resort and the only place where you can snorkel from the beach to the reef. The diving is a 5 minute boat ride and you spend the...

There are a couple of nice beaches in town (Ramon's and Banyan Bay) but no real snorkeling off the beach. Arguably the nicest beach on the island is at Tranquility Bay Resort and it is the only place you can snorkel from shore to the reef safely, on Ambergris Caye. Regardless as a diver the...
