Don, Whenever I hear the word 'new' and 'boat' in the same sentence, I assume the individual really has some money to burn. If that's the case, my hat is off to you. Either that, or they've never actually bought a new boat before. All the stereotypes about a boat being a hole in the...

I have a Zeagle system complete with transfiller included for sale. It has NEVER been in the water, salt or fresh. I did test the unit once by filling it off of one of my tanks. The first stage easily screws into bigger tanks for a good redundant system. Here is a link to the Zeagle website...

Is this a real post? You're kidding about your experience and carrying a spare air while solo with 14 dives under your belt, right? Did they know on the boat what happened on your first dive and they let you go down a second time?

I agree, a few weeks back there were some issues with a group taking not only all the tables, but moving peoples gear while they were in the water and taking up an entire entry point.

From a local perspective, only living a few miles from DS, it was just too damn hot that weekend (95+) to put on 7mm's + hoods, etc. and fight my way down the incline and then back up. Crowds there (coolers on the tables) are a whole other story.

I was going to say something similar regarding the East End not being the best place for shore diving, but I was thinking that perhaps the resort was picked more for just general enjoyment/vacation rather than diving. The distance from the northeast quadrant over to Lighthouse point is about...

Well, luckily we followed our gut and changed plans before arriving so it all went quite well.

Sure thing, here it is. We arrived Saturday. Our plan originally was to start on the south end of the west side and work north as the week progressed, but we ended up mixing it up a bit. On Sunday, we met a guide at Don Foster's shore dive location named Richard/Richie early in the AM. He...

My wife and I went to GC when we were newly certified as well and just came back last Saturday. We spent a week there, got to know the island very well and best of all, we really got some good diving experience. I looked at the resort your staying at on the internet, and as you stated...

We just returned from a week in GC. The Cobalt Coast shore dive is a no-go, the current and winds are too rough and entry was next to impossible and they wouldn't let us enter. SunDivers at Cracked Conch or DiveTech at Lighthouse are the recommended locations. The current was moving pretty...

We just returned on Saturday and stayed at the Marriott like you are. Definitely rent a car, you'll save in eating around town. The Marriott food prices aren't even within the scheme of being remotely reasonable, even for a resort on a remote island. Burgers are 16.50CI which is about 22US...

We just returned from GC and the North Wall was closed off due to weather conditions, so if you stay at Cobalt, they'll be shuttling you to another location for diving. I would check prior to arriving. Just my two cents, but a la carte seems to work best. You can even negotiated deals at the...

If she is willing to give Scuba a shot, you could dive the Cali wreck. It's in about 25 foot of water and it's right where you'll get dropped off coming from the cruise boat. There are plenty of other people in the water too, so she might feel safer. As stated above, Eden Rock and Sunset House...

We just came back from Grand Cayman this Saturday and stayed at the Marriott. Don't bother with the food there, the prices are almost comical. For Breakfast we ate at Eats Cafe. The same owner runs Legendz and Yoshi Sushi and the place is spotless. Blueberry Pancakes are 3.95ci and you can...

A question to former visitors to Cobalt Coast: Did you enroll in the meal plan at the resort?

Has anyone had any experience with Henderson Gold Core's and the sizes they show on their chart? I realize that two people with the same height and weight can have completely different body shapes, but their size charts appear to be incredibly way off. We visited a dive shop and when she...

My wife and I are new to diving and are getting ready to purchase watches. Nothing fancy, just a basic watch that she'll probably wear only when diving and I'll probably wear occasionally outside of the water. Are there watch face colors that are easier to see than others? Thanks
