    Shallow sites (and sights)

    The rubble in the shallows of Something Special, Front Porch, Yellow Submarine, and Bari would be great for you. Lots of see.

    LUMIX LX10

    I've only used the Nauticam housing and haven't had any problems with vignetting. A lot of my footage is taken at the len's widest with no zoom. I attached a picture of my screen with the camera zoomed all the way out.

    Diving in Bonaire, did it increase you confidence level

    Same for me and my wife. In particular, I would say the end of the dives spent in the shallows greatly improved our buoyancy (and also taught us that lots of critters hang in the rubble and sand).

    Shore Diving Maui & 72s

    Most Maui shops also carry 63s--something to consider for some of the sites that require stairs or lots of walking (Slaughterhouse / Honolua Bay). You'll find that many Maui sites are so shallow that you'll surface because you're cold rather than low on air.

    Grenada and Carriacou??

    Looking at a map of the dive sites, it looks like most sites are cluttered around the southwest point. My wife gets seasick easily, so short and smooth boat rides are important for us. Would you say the boat rides are generally smoother diving from the Grand Anse area or from the True Blue side?

    tunnels kauai

    I read the same thing...of course, after several days of diving there. Apparently, the pollutants are from the stream there. BWTF (Water Quality Monitoring) Take care at Koloa Landing - The Garden Island

    tunnels kauai

    Tunnels would be really hard to dive without a company: the parking is about a quarter mile walk from the entrance; there's quite a walk from the entrance to the beach (someone with the dive shop used a cart to lug our gear down); and the site itself is not the easiest to navigate. I would...

    Salt Pier and Something Special have always delivered for me. Candyland too, but that getting there is a bit more complicated.
