    I Need diving excursions ASAP.

    Thanks I will check them out. I dive there before, but don't recall the shop. Neither do I recall the shop on Barbados that took us to a remarkably intact, and encrusted wreck... One of the disadvantages of not keeping a logbook.

    Choosing 2 spots to dive in Costa Rica

    leejnd, Because I will not ever speak of anyone diving with a place that is attached to a defunct marina and a bar full of monkeys. They might re-open the marina by the next century and the bar might be fine and good, but and I mean a very big BUTT... In and around the Catalina Islands of...
