    Seeking suggestions for "best diving" + "most affordable" dive destinations!

    I am gonna second Doc's suggestion of Galapagos. Diving with Scuba Iguana - land based on Puerto Ayora. It's not the cheapest for the diving, but everything else there is pretty cheap!

We stayed in an AirBnb on Santa Cruz island, and our kids finished their OW cert dives the first day, then...
