    Help please going to Nassau for the first time

    We are heading to Nassau in Mid-February and want to dive a bit. We have contacted what appears to be the big two dive operators and were surprised at the brevity of the dives. 30 minutes on the first and 45 minutes on the second with only a 20 minute surface interval. We are used to Cozumel...

    Big Milestone last week

    After a little over 8 years of diving I hit my 500th dive. Not bad for starting the hobby at the age of 50 and living 15 hours drive from the ocean dive sites. 500 more to the next milestone.

    April 16-26 in Cozumel Casa de Jefe and Aldora

    Well Cozumel did not disappoint again. Does it ever? We were diving with Aldora for 8 days, when they get you on the right boat the diving is other worldly. When on the 'right' boat we averaged 87 1/2 minutes of fabulous diving for 14 dives. Nitrox every dive to achieve this bottom time...
