    Need help - advice on job hunting in the Caribbean sea

    I agree with all that Wookie has said. Based on my personal experience, if you have a current, well paying job in the diving industry, and are happy, stay there until you get a written offer elsewhere. But, as an alternative, with your instructor and other related skills, I would suggest you...

    GoPro Hero 4 Silver LCD screen battery time

    Just finished a trip involving 24 dives. Shooting hero 4 silver. Each dive was 55 min to 65 min. We were doing 2 consecutive dives with 60 minute surface interval between dives. A fully charged battery lasted for duration of both dives, including surface interval. I usually powered camera off...

    Utila Dive Recommendations

    I second RJ's and Deep Blue divers. Emphasis on Driftwood Café & Grill. One week is not enough. Also ditto on a walkabout talking to operators rather than booking ahead online.

    Whale Sharks in Utila?

    Hey, C: You are getting there at the very beginning of rainy season. All whale shark sightings (99 +%) are on the north side. You will have to go there by boat and most do, weather permitting. You don't say who you are diving with. Ask them if they go to the north side, and if they try to...

    Roatan - single female looking for a safe place

    Diving 2512: I have stayed at FIBR before and it has continued to become less desirable over time. Yes, I would say check out the West End. The beaches in the area are south of Sueno Del Mar and Half Moon Bay. You may try Chilles or Coconut tree Divers. I prefer Splash Inn. It is...

    Would appreciate critique of 1st video

    Jim, I like your video. I have never dove Destin jetties. Maybe someday soon. I was amazed at all the tropical marine life! Yes, you need a red filter. Was it a cloudy day? The viz seemed good enough though. I saw you were at about 20feet. Most cameras will do well at that depth...

    West End Quagmire

    From what I am seeing and being told, West End is currently inundated. Apparenty, the recent rain combined with the road work, and lack of drainage planning is causing serious problems. And the rainey season does not begin until November! The natives are restless and irate! Any local...
