    Hero 4 Silver vs. Hero 5

    I know not many have gotten their hands on the Hero 5 yet, but whats your initial thoughts so far when watching the GoPro promotional videos? I'm thinking the Hero 4 Silver may be a better choice, and the 5 would need a secondary housing to go into? Just wondering what other peoples .02 was.

    Blackbeards vs. Juliet liveaboard

    Has anyone on here done both of these trips. It seems to be easy to get to Nassau, and really easy to get to the Miami area when it comes to flying in. When I end up doing either of these I will be traveling solo most likely, traveling in from Alaska. I like the idea of no custom lines in...

    Anna Maria Charters

    Anyone dive with either Blue Water Explorers or Sea Kat divers, if so what have your experiences been. Looking at going out with either of them in August, and would prefer the 6-pack of Sea Kat, but it seems that Blue Water may be more accommodating as it seems they may always have enough...

    Cheaper Hotels in Playa Del Carmen

    Any recommendations for cheaper hotels in Playa Del Carmen. Plan on staying there for 2-nights in January after a week in Cozumel. Would like to find a place for under $75, but won't complain about $50/ night. A nice pool would be a big plus, the beach is not a needed perk. Thanks.

    Kona in January???

    Ok, I need some input. I have gone to Cozumel the last two winters in January, and Roatan the year before that in January. I have dove Kona, Maui, and Oahu only during the summer, but was thinking of going to Kona this January rather then going to Cozumel or anywhere else in the Caribbean. As...

    So who is planning on being in Cozumel in January? I am trying to plan a return trip that will have me there from the 11-18th. Looking forward to being back in the water, as I did no local diving this summer since I was in the middle of a big construction project at my house.

    Direct Flight Miami-Roatan

    Roatan Charters Facebook page stated that American Airlines is going to start direct flights from Miami to Roatan. This got me excited since as a Alaska Air flyer, I can go non-stop Seattle to Miami, and can skip the multiple legs getting to Atlanta:)

    Some BP/W ??? Especially DRIS single setup

    A few questions I havent seen answers for in my search. 1. Can a scuba pro Air2 be used as the LPI for the DRIS 28lb wing? (not sure if brands are interchangable) 2. If I currently use a Large Knighthawk with 8lbs of lead with my 2/3mm wetsuit and 80CF Aluminum tank, what should I expect in...

    Review of CoCo View Resort (long write up, but hopefully worth the read)

    In January of 2012 I embarked on what would be my first solo scuba diving vacation to Roatan, which is part of the Bay Islands of Honduras. My destination would be the all inclusive resort of CoCo View. My choice to go to CoCo View came from their track record of having one of the highest...

    Dolphin Dive in Roatan?

    So now that the "Shark dive in Roatan" thread has gotten boring, now my question is "How is the Dolphin Dive in Roatan?". All the research that I have done leads to the conclusion that the Dolphin Encounters that are offered from misc. dive shops in Roatan are done at Anthonys Key, is this...
