    Looking for best place to get certified

    I am not sure who is Little Daddy or where they are located. My recommendation is Scuba School Belize or Chuck and Robbies. on Ambergris they are the only ones i would suggest. The advantage to SSB is they are recognized as a proper school in Belize and they are also a PADI dive center. I know...

    Peter, Just for the record there are a few others in San Pedro who are qualified to deeper than recreational diving limits. I agree with the poster the Blue hole is cowboy diving and unfortunately you do not know all the questions to ask before you go.

    Bent in Belize--Blue Hole Incident

    it is my understanding that DAN only covers what your own insurance does not cover. I have switched over to Dive Assure who is a primary carrier for dive insurance. i hope never to use it but it is comforting to know i have it. If you are going to do deco diving check with your insurance carrier...

    Check out this video I made regarding Lionfish in North America

    Nice video, as for the answer to you question. the recreational dive should be properly trained in the bagging or removal of the spines. the actual spearing is very easy it is what you do after spearing the lionfish. There are a couple of containment devices 1 from FOOLS it is a proper bag made...

    Hunting "classes"???

    You might try Lionfish hunting first, it is a little easier as long as you are careful and a lot less expensive. you can get into it for under $100.00. It is also a good thing to do for the reef system

    "I'm not interested, and I think the vast majority of us on the sidelines aren't interested, in a bunch of verbal bashing by those in the game. We don't know who to believe but more importantly we don't care. We're just here to find and/or share information about staying and diving in Belize."...
