    Airport for GBR?

    We may be diving the GBR in November/December and we will be flying out of LAX. My question is which airport should we fly into? Any recommendations either for or against? Which airline should we book with? Thanks.

    American Airlines

    I called the airline and booked directly with them and no problem. It is still saying the same wrong thing on the web. So much for being able to do things with the web.

    American Airlines

    Can someone explain what is going on with the American airlines flight LAX-MIA_+GCM? If I try to book business class and go to the seating chart it says that rows 1-7 are not available and we would need to sit in the main cabin. This means they want us to pay business class prices for coach...

    Scuba Gear for 7 footer

    Cricket at Otter Bay wetsuits made me a custom bootie. My foot is size 13 1/2 A with a AAA heel. It fits perfectly, but is hard to get on and off because it has no zippers for additional warmth. She uses very thick neoprene. I also got an extra long inflater hose on my BCD. I talked to Aqua...

    Scuba Gear for 7 footer

    I would second talking to Cricket. She makes very good stuff. The real question is where are you going to be diving? People are assuming your diving will all be where you live, but that may not be true. I am 6' 4" and I learned early on that a custom wetsuit was the way to go. I just got a...

    Global Entry App

    Just wanted people to be aware that Global Entry now has a new app. It is available for both apple and android. I am not sure how helpful it is going to be, but is something people should at least be award of so they can make their own decision.

    Reef Runaround?

    Does anyone know if the Reef Runaround is still in business? I just got a reply from their old contact info saying that they no longer have the business. A google search does not yield anything current with valid information. If they are still in business, would someone please post their...

    Discover scuba in California

    My question is about Discover Scuba in southern California. I am aware that at least some shops only do the discover scuba in the pool and not in the ocean. Is that true of all (or at last most) shops in SoCal? I have seen shops in other parts of the world doing discover scuba in the ocean...

    Trip Report Tubbataha Fish Survey

    We just got back from a REEF trip to Atlantis Dumaguete. It was amazing how many species there were in such small habitats.

    Trip Report Tubbataha Fish Survey

    Were you using the REEF long form when you did your survey and did you enter your data in their database? Or did you do something else?

    Exchange US dollars?

    For a week-long trip to Dumaguete, how much cash in US dollars should each of us take? How much in Philippine pesos? Where is the best place to exchange US dollars for Philippine pesos? Thanks in advance.

    Eon Steel Lockup

    I have not had the Eon Steel with the Buhlman algorithm lock up and I have done some stupid things with it.

    Eon Steel Lockup

    Then the strangest thing happened. Several months after I got the new eon steel black from the LDS, Suunto sent me another brand new eon steel black in my original rubber boot that I had sent into Utah. So now I have two new eon steel blacks. I am still trying to figure that one out.

    When a dive center's insurance is merely window dressing

    Thank you for posting this. This is something that people need to know. We just got back from a week at Ramon's. I asked about this incident and was told it never happened or if it did, it was not one of their boats. Ramon's is a big operation and the dive masters are in a hurry. This is...

    Need help with dive bag/Travel bag?

    I have Briggs & Riley for my clothes and medical stuff. I used to have a Stahlsac for the dive stuff which I loved, but it went the way of all flesh. My wife had an Aqualung bag for her dive stuff which got destroyed by the airlines. It was the handle and not the wheels. Aqualung gave us a...

    Suit Juice

    I have been using Suit Juice to help get into my wetsuit, but it does not seem to be available anymore. Does anyone know what happened to it?

    Trip Report Clark's Cay

    We did two morning dives each day and one afternoon dive. They were going to do a night dive but the group changed that to a dusk dive. The website is somewhat misleading on the boats. They list two but one of them is for dunbar rock, so the other one is for Clark's Cay. We only had one boat...

    Trip Report Clark's Cay

    I am not sure my wife took pictures of the dive boat. I will check with her. There are some pictures on their website. The daily dive process was basically to get your wetsuit from the hanger/rack on the dock and take it on the boat with you to your station where they had set up your BCD...

    Trip Report Clark's Cay

    We just got back from a week of diving at Cabanas at Clark's Cay. This was one of the best dive trips we have been on. The good: Excellent visibility on almost all dives; good boat where we did not feel crowded with a good ladder to get back on and generous shade; excellent food which I would...
