I did El Pit in June. Loved it and plan to do it again in December with Angelina. Thanks for the referral. I plan to use WetOwls for the week but they don't do any Christmas dives. Maybe geraldine can help.
Hey, I support the requirements for any certification that you can get. I also agree with tursiops that any reputable instructor should not bend rules that are put in place to make this a safe sport. When I have 100 logged dives I will get the self reliant certification. I am sure that the...
The problem with the solo diver or self reliant course is the requirement for 100 dives. I got my basic dive cert in 1975 but only have 32 recent dives under my belt so that is not an option for me now. Thanks for the thought, though.

Hi Guy
I am new to the scuba board but not to scuba diving. I am a solo diver interested in others who want to help make the sport safe. I will be in Playa del Carmen Mexico December 20 -30 this year. I went in June and liked it so much, I had to go back. I love diving the Cenotes...
