    Media Luna, San Luis Potosi .... ?

    We dove Media Luna this past spring ... clear waters, definitely warm and a few bubbly subsurface springs that you can play around in to pass the time. I´m not much for tight spaces so I can´t comment on any of the cavern entrances. The dive shop near the highway on the way into the park...

    Recent Feedback on Cocoview (2003 vs 2006)

    Well, I didn't mean to speak for all Honduran coffee, but CoCo View's dining room coffee didn't suit my personal tastes - it was too watered down. But Dan is right about minimizing the caffinated drinks, staying hydrated is considered a good habit to help you avoid DCS. CCV provides a...

    Roatan Shark Dive Video

    Catfish's video captured the dive perfectly ( and actually got he some better up close shots than the DVD i bought from Waihuka on this last trip) - Great job :14: ! But about the feeding - the dive leader said that they are only feeding 3 pounds of bait to the sharks on each dive.

    I was there earlier this month with a large group & none of us had any issues ... except possibily overeating. ;) Maybe consider supplementing your diet (before & while at CCV) with a daily serving of yogurt for the beneficial bacteria if you are prone to stomach sensitivity. Also, coffee is...

    Shark diving options? Other places than the Bahamas?

    Our group did the Waihuka dive on Roatan earlier this month and it was Great ... I believe you can reach them at Waihukadiving@hotmail.com . If you're on the island it is definitely worth the money. :azvatar:

    Tarpon Springs?

    Have an upcoming trip to Tampa later this fall and am thinking about taking a look around Tarpon Springs ... interested in some local feedback on the accommodations, charter operators, dive sites etc. Since I'll be coming to the area by way of Tampa, Tarpon Springs is an option, but not a...

    Sept 17 &18 Underwater Archaeology Class

    Gosh, to tell the truth, I'm just taking it for the "fun" factor. But that is a good question. The dive shop should be able to tell you if you will be eligible for a specialty certification through any of the agencies. Blue Dolphin 336.760.9226. I'll see what I can find out tomorrow and...

    Queen Anne's Revenge

    I think many of the divers are going because of their interest & support of NC maritime history, and of course the Blackbeard legend is a colorful part. Since it is a 2-day program, you may want to think of it this way: $250 per day ... includes: - one half day of diving-related classtime with...
