    Is Cozumel SAFE?

    Bag Dragged to Cozumel and took ferry over then returned to mainland, rented a car and drove a bit North where we rented a house for a few days. Drove the highways and side streets from Cancun to Talum with no issues and even shopped at local grocery stores as an obvious non Spanish speaking...

    First time diving cozumel

    Only been there once and it was a GREAT TRIP! I asked the same questions here before I went and I ended up rooming at Casa Mexicana and booking with Aldora. Both were excellent experiences. The dive shop and dock are both a 5 min walk or less from hotel. I ended up hiring a private dive guide...

    PDC or COZ ???

    Well due to all the feed back here I think COZ (for me) it is!!! At least for 3 days then over to PDC for beach time (for her)..good compromise I guess. Think were gonna skip the AOW course too for now and just enjoy the sights and get some more experience under us and enjoy. Looking at...

    PDC or COZ ???

    Was dead set on a trip to Placencia to dive with whale sharks but had to be smart and reconsider due to still being a novice diver and having a partner on the nervous side. We are OW PADI but not AOW so that trip will have to wait a little bit and were OK with that. By the way got some great...

    Advice / Recommendations for Coz in May ? New Divers...

    As much as I would like to stay in the water all days I m pretty sure she wants to do a little sight seeing so there a compromise there. As for the lodging I think we would both prefer a beach to lounge and snorkel if possible. As far as gas goes she tends to be inconsistent while I can calm...
