    Water temperature and Viz in Fiji in May?

    I just returned from 2.5 weeks (August 4th - 22nd) in Fiji. My husband and I spent 9 days diving Rainbow Reef from Taveuni and 6 days from Volivoli. The lowest water temp I recorded was 77, most dives were 79. We were both comfortable in our 5mm suits, although we did get a bit cold towards the...

    We rented a house in the center of Windwardside. It was wonderful. Yes, flying in and out was an EXPERIENCE.

    My apologies for falling off the face of the earth. Once a lurker, always a lurker? After all of that, we ended up going to Saba. It had been on our radar for a while, and after a difficult spring, we decided to opt for something that was easier to get to (maybe we are getting old?!). We ended...

    Found in Saba - What's this fish?

    Found this fish in Saba at the beginning of the month hiding under a coral overhang at around 50 feet. It was around one inch in length and fairly unbothered by my presence. Based on size, I'd guess it's a juvenile, but that could be an incorrect assumption. I've been searching and searching but...

    Thanks for all of these great suggestions! Quino El Guardian seems like a very interesting option. I've done some snorkeling in the Sea of Cortez, and really enjoyed it. Adding the opportunity to contribute to a research project would be icing on the cake. Just have to see if I can make the...

    Do you have a specific recommendation for the Philippines? We'd be outside of the season for Tubbahata. Anilao piques my interest, but it looks like July and August are not ideal due to monsoons.

    We just got back from Cozumel at the beginning of January. It was good, but after diving Komodo last summer, it felt a little underwhelming. Hoping we haven't completely spoiled Caribbean diving for ourselves. Going to Raja next winter probably isn't going to help. I was strongly considering...

    My bank account was worried that this might be a suggestion.

    Hi all! I'm a longtime lurker finally taking the plunge and making my first post! I've been awarded a travel grant (!) through work and am trying to figure out where to go. Only stipulations for travel are that it be international (from the US) and during the coming summer. After taxes, I'll...
