Amazing shot, Captain!

Hi Diva Barefoot Divers were our preferred options, unfortunately they could not accomodate our cruise schedule. maybe next time.

Ben, were you able to dive the ship wrecks (40 canones, etc.)? According to Costa Maya Toursit board, "Currently the wrecks cannot be dived. This has been requested by the The Banco Chinchorro Biosphere and is followed by the diving schools. Most of the wrecks are very shallow and can best be...

according to the costa maya tourist site, diving the wrecks at banco chinchorro is prohibited. Costa Maya, Xcalak and Mahahual (Majahual) Visitors pages - Diving on Banco Chinchorro any recent experience?

just got back from diving Caribbean with my Aqualung Mikron. Great regulator, easy breather and sooo much smaller compared to full sized 2nd stages. only minor issue, it is really sensitive to free flow when value adjustment knob is fully opened outside the water. anybody with similar experience?

the DM was indeed the assigned buddy for the 3rd diver!

just got back from dives with Deep Blue. very professionally run operations, small groups (on this day, they used 3 boats with 6-7 divers, each with own DM), relatively new and well maintained equipment, and very experienced DM. we dove palancar gardens and cedral wall (drift dive) which are...

well, i guess it's all about perspective...used bananarama last week as part of a cruise stop, and was truly disappointed with their operations. too laid back for my taste, equipment rather old, you had to drag the full equipment across the beach and water onto an outdated dive boat, and our...

just got back from awesome dive experience with Gary and Scott. They are one of the best dive operators I have ever used! professionally run operation (Liz will take care of all your logistics in no time, and supplies you with great homemade cookies :D), specializing in small groups (we were...

brief feedback from my cruise dives: Grand Cayman: Living the Dreams. 5-Star personalized dive operator! Professionally run, small groups (we were 3 divers with 2 divemasters!), excellent equipment, full valet service. One of the best dive operators I have experienced todate! Highly...

plan to do SDI online with practical certification part in Southern California.

Any recommendations / thoughts / experiences on the different Nitrox certifications available: PADI EAN, SDI Computer Nitrox, SSI Nitrox Diver? I plan to get my certification and tend to go with SDI which seems most straight forward, simple and least expensive: all for 119 USD, while PADI will...

have scheduled the same cruise, however shipping out on October 30. plan NOT to use the cruise dive operators. Have selected the following dive shops: cayman: living the dream.very responsive and accomodating special requests (my wife is planning to complete her aow, so we will have 2...

thanks for all your advice! Have just bought an Aqualung Mikron and will try it out in a couple of weeks in the Caribbean.

thanks your all your advice! Just ordered me a Mikron, and can't wait to try it out in a few weeks in the Caribbean.

thanks, claymore! The LP Miflex hose is standard hose between 1st and 2nd stage, or are you talking about the BCD inflator hose?

i am considering owning my own reg (apeks flight or aqualung micron), my dive buddy is questioning rationale of buying. we are both recreational warm water divers with approx. 20 dives per year. is is worth the hassle (maintenance, travel weight) to own your set, or continue renting from...

any thoughts/experience on these travel regs? tend towards apeks flights (extra HP port, ease of breathing?), but wonder of price premium over aqualung micron is justified. Thanks for your input!

considering ordering a Flight set (1st, 2nd and octo) for 449 Euro (= after VAT refund of 19% about 460 USD!) from German online store (Atlantis Berlin). my question is: how to get the equipment serviced in the US? Aqualung will not extend warranty for non-US equipment, but will they...
