We ended up getting Aqualung i300C - which has bluetooth. It's a start, we'll just have to try it out! Thanks for all the help!

My sister and her husband are getting their BOW done in Playa. They then want to do a couple of dives with my husband and I (we are AOW, and have a few dives under our belts). We are all staying in Playacar. My husband and I will have already done some diving off Cozumel. So, for a pair of new...

I have been doing my research, but find I still have some questions that aren't addressed. Most discussions of dive computers (DCs) devolve into a discussion of the algorithms. I am not interested in that discussion (I read them, and I am satisfied with my interpretations). So please - NO...

Yes, I am taking my 3mm for diving off Cozumel. I was thinking that a fullsuit would be too hot for just a few minutes of snorkeling with the sharks...

Is it worth getting my own shorty? I do dive as well, but I use a 3mm full suit for that. My understanding is that for the whale shark snorkel, you either need a wetsuit (shorty) or use a life vest. I prefer not to use a life vest (I find them bulky), but I am wondering at renting a shorty. I...

Thanks for all the help and suggestions! I bought two sets of swim tights/leggings - TYR and Carve. Can't wait to go snorkel with them!

The only thing I don't like about Keys Life (and a couple of other sites like it) is that the stores are located in Florida (nowhere near me), and the return policies are poor. I understand returning items that are damaged, but to not be able to return items that are the wrong size? I can't go...

Because I (unfortunately) cannot stay under water all the time, I need something for snorkeling. I have a couple of rashguard shirts, but need something on my bottom (an unfortunate sunburn made this VERY clear). So, any suggestions for the lycra bottoms? Full leg? capri? stirrup/ankle straps...

I thought about a full length stinger suit - but how to get to the bathroom??? this is why I wear a tankini under my wetsuit...

Was in Marsa Alam this past summer (July). It was amazing! Flew Cairo to Hurghada, then had a driver to the dive site. Just two middle aged ladies out for some amazing diving!! I stayed at Red Sea Diving Safari - Marsa Alam - Home and would HIGHLY recommend them. Great staff, reasonable pricing...

No, we didn't. We ran into some issues, and cannot make the trip this year.

Not sure what to call them. I have seen a lot of stinger suits (UPF), but they are all one piece with a zipper. What I want is just the bottoms. I have several rash guard tops, but I'd like some funky bottoms, preferably ankle length. For the one piece stingers, do any of you have a brand you...

There will be 4 of us (my husband and I with ~20 dives each, 2 teens who will be newly certified) traveling over winter break. I am leaning towards staying in Guanacaste (using Rocket Frog or Rich Coast). I'd really appreciate any info on best places to do 2 days of diving, good place to stay...

My husband and I don't dive often (maybe once every couple of years). We take a refresher course before we go somewhere to dive though. We like places that have warm water and pretty underwater life. The dives should be fairly easy ones. We've been to Australia and Belize. Any suggestions or...

I have a Canon PowerShot SX20 IS that is fantastic for land photos, but the housing for it is jaw-dropping, and I am not sure it would be all that great for photos underwater (got it for the Zoom!). so I am looking for something that would be relatively inexpensive (no more than $500) but...

to get to Thatch we would fly into Belize City, then fly on to Dangriga (45minutes?), and be picked up there. That's fine. Would we have time to travel to Cayo (San Ignacio)? How long would it take to travel the Hummingbird Highway? Should we take a bus or rent a car? What we are hoping...

I am looking for recommendations on the safest dive companies in Belize. I am not sure if we will be diving north near CC or south, off Dangriga/Placencia. We will be taking a refresher course here in the US before going, as it has been almost 2 years since our trip to Australia (ProDive...

My husband and I would like to go somewhere in the Caribbean in mid-June. We will be taking two children, ages 5 & 8, as well as a nanny. So we are looking for a location/island that will have plenty to keep the kids entertained. We also want to do some diving while there. Our only other...

I am going out on a liveaboard, and don't feel comfortable diving GBR as my first REAL dive alone. So Hubby and I decided to do the AOW as a way to get some additional training, and have a guide. Dives will be: Nav, Night, Deep, Photo, and Naturalist. Any comments?
